Demo Fridays 8.0: Saving Kantamanto

Circular Solutions to Build Ghana’s Economy

Demo Fridays by Building Bytes is a quarterly gathering that brings together innovators, entrepreneurs, ecosystem leaders, investors, and early adopters to share bold ideas, test solutions, and spark collaborations that move Ghana’s innovation ecosystem forward.

This edition, Demo Fridays 8.0, turns the spotlight on Kantamanto — Ghana’s largest reuse market and one of the most powerful living examples of a circular economy in West Africa.

Under the theme “Saving Kantamanto: Circular Solutions to Build Ghana’s Economy,” we explore how circular thinking, recycling technologies, and green business models can transform environmental challenges into engines for job creation, local manufacturing, and climate-smart economic growth.

Kantamanto is more than a market — it is proof that extending product lifecycles, minimizing waste, and turning discarded materials into value can strengthen economic resilience and inclusion. This event positions the circular economy not as a niche idea, but as a national development strategy.
