Tech It Forward, a tech scouting company based in Israel, has announced a strategic partnership with Love Enterprises Ltd, a leading Ghanaian limestone quarrying company, to revolutionize Ghana's cement industry. The collaboration aims to introduce cutting-edge technologies that enhance efficiency and sustainability in cement production.
Love Enterprises Ltd, recognising Israel's global reputation for innovation, has enlisted Tech It Forward to connect them with startups that can transform their operations. The partnership’s primary goal is to establish full-scale cement production facilities in Ghana, reducing reliance on imported clinker and better using local limestone resources.
Innovating Ghana's Cement Industry
The Ghanaian cement sector faces many environmental and social challenges, gaps Love Enterprises aims to fill by transitioning from raw limestone supply to complete sustainable cement production. This initiative not only meets a critical market need but also supports local industry growth.
Love Enterprises' limestone deposits have a lower calcium carbonate content than typical industry standards, presenting a unique challenge. Tech It Forward is identifying advanced Israeli technologies to efficiently process this limestone, making sustainable cement production viable. This business relationship was made possible through iTrek, a New York City-based non-profit, aiming at introducing tomorrow’s leaders in business, law, policy and STEM to Israel, helping them experience Israel firsthand through peer-led, week-long Israel Treks.
Shared Commitment to Sustainability
This partnership emphasizes a mutual commitment to sustainability. Love Enterprises’ focus on eco-friendly technologies aligns with global efforts to reduce industrial environmental impact. Tech It Forward's involvement underscores Israel's leadership in innovation, particularly in construction, mining, and climate tech, even amid challenging circumstances.
