According to Ghana News Agency, President Mahama expressed satisfaction with their intervention in gold, oil and gas co-operation, adding;“Ghana is a developing country with attendant urbanisation challenges and we will, therefore, want you to do the simulation for us to solve those challenges in the country.”
Mr Bernard Charles, Chief Executive Officer of Dassault Systems, who explained the company’s activities to President Mahama, said apart from Ghana, the outfit had over the years co-operated with 40 other countries. “Over 200 people have been trained in software in Ghana each year to increase profitability, mining safety and general good working conditions in the mining and oil and gas industry,” he said
