Ghana's digital hub, GDCL, boosts innovation and jobs but faces challenges; committee urges expansion and support.
Ghana’s Select Committee on Communications, Digital Technology, and Innovations visited Ghana Digital Centres Limited on October 3, 2025, to assess its role in the national digital economy.
The delegation toured facilities including MLAB, IHUB, and BPO firms, noting GDCL’s impact on innovation and job creation.
CEO Dzifa Gunu cited aging infrastructure, funding gaps, and limited government collaboration as key challenges.
The Centre hosts over 60 tech firms, has a 60% occupancy rate, created over 3,000 digital jobs, supported 500 startups, and trained more than 10,000 youth.
Programs like GODEP, MASHAV, and TDIP drive skills and incubation efforts.
The committee recommended expanding GDCL’s oversight to regional centres, establishing BPO/KPO zones, finalizing ownership transfer to the Ministry of Communications, improving vehicle and supervision support, and promoting exports of locally developed products.
