A Focused 2-Day Business Platform · From Dialogue to Deal Execution
“A high-impact bilateral platform designed to advance trade, mobilise investment, foster innovation, and support industrialisation between Canada and Nigeria.”
Canada and Nigeria share longstanding diplomatic relations, supported by a strong diaspora connection and expanding economic engagement. Nigeria is Canada’s second-largest trading partner in Africa, underscoring the strategic importance of the bilateral relationship. Despite this, trade and investment remain significantly underleveraged relative to their potential.
2026 marks a critical window for institutional and private sector actors to move from dialogue to deal execution.
