Nigeria is set to command attention at the 8th Financing Investment and Trade in Africa (FITA2025) conference, taking place May 6–7, 2025, in Tunis, Tunisia. The high-level event, organized by the Tunisia-Africa Business Council (TABC), coincides with the Council’s 10th anniversary, marking a decade of promoting economic integration and intra-African partnerships.
Showcasing Nigeria’s Economic Vision
Under the theme “Driving Africa’s Transformation,” FITA2025 will highlight investment opportunities in key sectors including industrial transformation, energy transition, digitalisation, and infrastructure modernisation—areas that align closely with Nigeria’s development priorities.
Nigeria has been named one of five featured countries in the “Invest in” spotlight sessions, sharing the stage with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Madagascar, and Guinea-Conakry. Each nation will present their economic potential, priority investment projects, and business-friendly environments to a global audience of stakeholders.
Representing Nigeria at the conference will be Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, who will reinforce Nigeria’s commitment to economic diplomacy, regional cooperation, and becoming a leading investment destination in Africa.
A Platform for Strategic Growth
With over 2,000 participants expected from more than 60 countries, including policymakers, CEOs, project developers, and financial institutions, FITA2025 promises unmatched networking and partnership opportunities. The presence of African investment promotion agencies, Tunisian enterprises, and international business leaders will further create a fertile ground for public-private collaborations.
For Nigeria, this is more than just a chance to promote investment—it’s an opportunity to forge strategic alliances, build investor confidence, and align national strategies with broader continental goals.
Charting Africa’s Prosperous Future
As Africa faces critical economic shifts and global transitions, FITA2025 emerges as a vital platform for policy alignment, cross-border trade, and sustainable investment. Nigeria’s active participation underscores its readiness to lead in shaping a resilient, competitive, and unified African economy.
By leveraging this global stage, Nigeria aims to attract capital, foster innovation, and drive inclusive growth that benefits not just the nation, but the entire continent.
