Abuja, Nigeria — October 22–25, 2025: The Federal Capital Territory will take centre stage this October as over 500 high-level participants from 40 countries converge for the Abuja Business Investment Expo, a premier platform for unlocking economic potential in emerging markets.
Hosted by the Abuja Investment Company Limited (AICL) under the leadership of Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Barrister Nyesom Wike, the event will unfold at the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre — bringing together top government officials, investors, industry leaders, diplomats, financiers, and innovators from around the world.
This year’s theme, “Empowering Sustainable Growth: Unlocking Potential in Emerging Markets,” will drive conversations on how to build resilient economies through innovation, inclusivity, and strategic partnerships.
Attendees can expect:
-
Dynamic panel discussions on global investment trends
-
Keynote addresses from influential thought leaders
-
Business matchmaking sessions linking local entrepreneurs with global investors
-
Interactive debates and networking opportunities designed to spark high-value collaborations
According to Dr. Maureen Tamuno, GMD/CEO of AICL, the Expo will serve as more than a showcase of Abuja’s investment potential — it will be a problem-solving hub addressing challenges that have historically slowed growth in emerging markets.
“We’re not just discussing opportunities; we’re forging practical solutions that can be implemented immediately,” Dr. Tamuno said.
The event aligns with the Minister’s broader vision to position Abuja as a global investment hub, diversify the economy beyond oil, and foster sustainable urban development.
By connecting local entrepreneurs with international financiers, development partners, and policymakers, organisers hope the Expo will catalyse transformative investments, create jobs, and strengthen Nigeria’s role in the global economic landscape.
