Chief Executive Officer of the McDan Group of Companies, Dr. Daniel McKorley, has made public his authorization to embark on investment ventures within the State of Houston, United States (US).
This announcement was made during a Business Dinner Reception where he addressed associates from Houston, Texas.
Speaking at the event, he stated that the Executive Mayor of Houston, Sylvester Turner, has expressed his desire to host him as well as his endeavors.
“You are welcome here, this is your home. I don’t want to see you as visitors, I am happy to host you. I am coming to my second home. I intend to make some investments in Houston. I have had some discussions with your mayor, and he has given me the keys to the State,” he added.
On the other hand, Mayor Turner extended a warm invitation, emphasizing that Dr. McKorley was not considered a mere visitor, but rather a welcomed member of the community.
He emphasized the importance of cultivating relationships, underscoring that the objective isn’t to create a situation of winners and losers or to engage in one-sided takeovers.
Instead, the primary aim is to cultivate an atmosphere of mutual advantage and collaboration.
“It’s not just about what is here that we can take back to Houston it’s about what can we bring and sit at the table and create win, win, win.This is not about trying to create winners and losers it’s not about coming to take and go away, it’s about number one, building relationships because when you build relationships the business will follow.
“And then it’s about recognising how can we take the best and put it together at the table blend it and make it work for both.And then for so many it’s about coming to Ghana, coming to the African continent and then coming home. All of those things are happening at the same time,” he added.
The Mayor of Houston, together with a delegation of 30 distinguished representatives, embarked on a meaningful and culturally enriching journey to Ghana on July, 21, 2023.
The primary objective of this monumental trip was to reinforce the connections between Houston and Ghana, facilitate collaborative efforts, and embark on new avenues for trade and cultural exchange.
