About
Guyana Diaspora Sustainability & Investment Conference (GDSIC)
GDSIC was conceived following the successful Guyana Energy Conference held in Georgetown, Guyana, February 14th to 17th 2023 where we recognised a significant opportunity to bridge the inadvertent information / knowledge gap between Guyana and the Guyanese Diaspora in the United Kingdom and by extension, Europe. Essentially GDSIC will strengthen linkages and build alliances that will help Guyana’s growth and development globally.
Updates regarding speakers, special guests and so on will be provided on a regular basis. For details on how to register for the Conference or buy tickets email the organisers or visit guyanadiasporaconference.com
