FG Establishes Nigeria House for World Economic Forum in Davos

The Federal Government has unveiled plans to set up Nigeria House in Davos ahead of the 56th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum scheduled for January 19 to 23, 2026, in Switzerland.

The initiative will mark Nigeria’s first official National House on the Davos Promenade, positioning the country alongside other nations that use the platform to advance economic diplomacy and global influence.

According to the Presidency, the project is designed to showcase Nigeria’s ongoing economic reforms, investment opportunities, institutional capacity, and cultural identity to global leaders, investors, and development partners. The government described the move as a strategic effort to strengthen foreign direct investment inflows, deepen international partnerships, and improve Nigeria’s global economic standing in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda.

Nigeria House Davos is being implemented through a Public–Private Partnership involving the Federal Ministries of Industry, Trade and Investment; Finance; and Foreign Affairs, working alongside private sector stakeholders. A consortium led by Eviola & Co Integrated Services Ltd is coordinating execution, with support from local and international partners.

The platform will serve as a high-level convening space for ministerial engagements, policy dialogues, investment meetings, bilateral discussions, and cultural diplomacy. Activities will run across five thematic days, focusing on areas such as solid minerals and mining value chains, agriculture and trade infrastructure, climate and energy investment, digital trade and technology, and the creative economy.

Government officials said finance, legislation, investor protection, and investment security will cut across all discussions, ensuring consistency in messaging and policy clarity.

The Presidency noted that the establishment of Nigeria House Davos signals the country’s readiness to engage the global economy on its own terms, presenting a unified and credible national narrative while directly engaging key international decision-makers.
