Nigeria Unveils ‘Nigeria House Davos’ Ahead of WEF 2026

The Federal Government of Nigeria has launched Nigeria House Davos, the country’s first official national pavilion at the World Economic Forum (WEF), ahead of the 56th Annual Meeting scheduled for January 19–23, 2026 in Davos, Switzerland.

The initiative positions Nigeria on the global stage, highlighting its economic reforms, investment readiness, institutional capacity, and cultural identity. According to Abiodun Oladunjoye, Director of Information and Public Relations at the State House, Nigeria House Davos aims to attract foreign direct investment, strengthen strategic partnerships, and reinforce the nation’s global economic standing, aligned with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Officials noted that the platform allows Nigeria to present its reform narrative directly to global leaders, investors, and policymakers, rather than through intermediaries, enhancing the country’s economic diplomacy and soft power.

Delivered through a Public–Private Partnership (PPP) framework, Nigeria House Davos brings together government institutions, including the Ministries of Industry, Trade and Investment; Finance; and Foreign Affairs, with private sector partners. Eviola & Co Integrated Services Ltd leads execution, supported by Lex-Con Advisory Services Ltd, UFAM Services Nigeria Ltd, and international technical partners, ensuring a professional and impactful presence throughout the five-day forum.

During WEF, Nigeria House Davos will serve as a sovereign convening platform for:

  • Ministerial engagements and policy dialogues
  • High-level roundtables and investment meetings
  • Cultural diplomacy and bilateral discussions

The program spans five thematic days covering:

  • Solid minerals and mining value chains
  • Trade infrastructure and agriculture
  • Climate investment, energy, and environmental sustainability
  • Digital trade and technology
  • Creative economy and cultural exports
  • Cross-sector convergence

Finance, legislation, and investment security will be integrated across all sessions, reinforcing Nigeria’s reform credentials and investor-friendly environment.

By establishing Nigeria House Davos, the government underscores its ambition to position Nigeria as a serious, reform-driven economy open for partnerships and long-term investment, joining other leading nations that leverage Davos Houses as tools for global influence, economic storytelling, and strategic engagement.

Officials described the initiative as a statement of national confidence, emphasizing the country’s readiness to engage the world and present Nigeria’s story with clarity, credibility, and purpose.
