PSC engages Japanese business mission on expanding investment in Guyana

The Private Sector Commission (PSC) recently participated in the JETRO Guyana Business Mission 2025, held from October 22–23, 2025, which brought together a high-level Japanese delegation representing 14 companies across multiple industries.
During the two-day mission, the delegation met and engaged with members of the private sector through business matching sessions and networking exchanges aimed at strengthening trade and investment partnerships between Guyana and Japan.
At the opening ceremony, PSC Chairman Captain Gerald Gouveia Jr described the mission as a great opportunity for investors in the private sector to forge meaningful partnerships that will strengthen trade and technology transfer between Guyana and Japan.
He highlighted Guyana’s potential as a hub for manufacturing, ICT, and logistics in the Caribbean and emphasised the country’s role as a gateway for Japanese businesses looking to expand into the region.
At the closing ceremony, Dr Peter Ramsaroop, Chief Investment Officer and Head of the Guyana Office for Investment (GO-Invest), expressed optimism about the outcomes of the visit, noting that he was “very interested in the technology coming out of Japan and in working together with the companies represented.”
In a statement, the PSC said it welcomes initiatives that foster international cooperation, technology exchange, and sustainable investment opportunities, further positioning Guyana as a key destination for regional and global business engagement.
