The programme, attended by around 200 participants who acquired citizenship through Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme, featured a formal Independence Gala alongside targeted engagement sessions for citizens and prospective applicants from Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.

GTA used the platform to highlight Grenada as a premier leisure destination, showcasing the island’s luxury travel options, wellness retreats, eco-tourism experiences, and rich cultural offerings.

“Engaging with globally mobile audiences who already have ties to Grenada is central to our market diversification strategy,” said Stacey Liburd, Chief Executive Officer of the Grenada Tourism Authority. “Events like this allow us to enhance destination visibility and foster deeper, longer-term connections with our islands.”

The programme included destination presentations from GTA, an overview of investment opportunities by the Grenada Investment Development Corporation (GIDC), and insights on Homecoming Week initiatives from Ambassador Terrence Forrester.

Thomas Anthony, Chief Executive Officer of IMA Grenada, described the Independence engagement as a key opportunity to strengthen long-term relationships with Grenadian citizens. “Our collaboration with the GTA ensures that citizenship extends beyond acquisition to meaningful engagement with the destination. Interest from new citizens in visiting Grenada and connecting with local communities continues to grow,” he said.

The GTA remains committed to strategic partnerships and international outreach to support sustainable tourism growth, market diversification, and greater global engagement.
