The Suame Magazine Industrial Development Organisation (SMIDO) has established an auto diagnostic centre at the Suame magazine.
The centre, which would be inaugurated by the first week of December, is expected to enrol ten students to begin an auto diagnostic engineering programme.
Mr Aweeba Azongo, Consultant to SMIDO, who made this known to reporters at the end of a capacity building workshop for the Executive Council members of SMIDO in Kumasi on Friday, said the inauguration of the centre formed part of the deployment of modern technology at the Suame Magazine.
The workshop is aimed at equipping the members with the necessary skills to enable them to implement the second phase of the Suame Magazine development project, which is being done by SMIDO with financial support from the BUSAC fund.
Under the project, SMIDO would launch the Suame Magazine Automatics Institute, organise technological and business development services fair to bring together all the technological products and business development services relevant to the industrial development of Magazine,
This would enable them to identify dialogue partners to support the deployment of modern technology and best business practices at "magazine".
An investment conference would also be organised to bring together all the dialogue partners to define a common investment project, unique to the operations of the Suame Magazine.
Mr Azongo said, now that all the necessary structures had been established at the Magazine, what was needed was to build the skills of the leadership of SMIDO to enable them to implement the development initiatives under the second phase.
Mr George Amankwaa, President of SMIDO thanked the BUSAC fund for the continued financial support, which was helping the industrial development of Magazine.
He said the advocacy training programme had helped sharpen their skills and urged members to continue researching to gain more insight into new technologies to help their businesses.
