Dear Delegates, Partners, and Stakeholders,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the WIEG Investment Summit 2025. As we gather here in Lagos — the commercial heartbeat of West Africa — we are reminded of the powerful role that private capital, strategic partnerships, and innovation play in transforming economies.

This summit brings together Federal and subnational governments, global investors, African business leaders, policymakers, EPCM construction firms, Agribusinesses, FMCGs, manufacturers, Telecom & IT companies, financial institutions, media & civil society, regulatory agencies and sector experts to foster dialogue, build networks, and unlock real opportunities for growth across the region.

We thank our sponsors, government partners, and international delegates for their commitment to economic transformation and inclusive prosperity.

Welcome to the WIEG Investment Summit 2025.

Sincerely,

Dr. Chris Nwanne, Chair, WIEG Nigeria Mandate
