His expertise in trade facilitation, investment promotion, and institutional capacity building has been instrumental in advancing EU cooperation with Ghana and other African partners—particularly in key sectors such as agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and renewable energy.

In his senior leadership roles, he has overseen a wide range of trade-related initiatives and contributed directly to the negotiation and implementation of preferential agreements, working closely with ministries of trade in Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, and elsewhere. His approach is defined by innovation, strategic alignment, and a strong focus on stakeholder engagement, ensuring that initiatives deliver both commercial value and policy relevance.

Highly respected for his ability to navigate the political, economic, and operational dimensions of international trade, Mr. Gebara brings a depth of insight and diplomatic acumen that makes him a trusted partner in high-level negotiations.
