Business Forum 2018, Zurich, Switzerland

NIGERIA BUSINESS & INVESTORS FORUM, ZURICH, 12-14.9.2018
That the Nigerian economy is the biggest in Africa in no longer news, that
the Nigerian stock exchange is among the best performing stock Exchange
in the world for 2017 is also no longer news. However, what is news is that
the Nigerian economy which has the biggest market on the African
continent with a fast growing middle class is under exploited and under
invested leaving a huge investment opportunities gap with high returns.
The current Government policy of diversifying the Nigeria economy from oil
through a medium term economic plan, “the Economic Recovery and
Growth Plan” (ERGP) presents a lot of investment opportunities to
discerning investors.
In this connection, the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Bern,
Switzerland in collaboration with Nigerians In Diaspora Organisation (NIDO
Swiss) is organising a Business and Investment Forum titled, “Nigeria: the
Investors Heaven”. This will focus but not limited to the following sectors
of the economy, Agriculture, Solid Minerals, Power, Transportation
Infrastructure, Information Technology, Small and Medium scale
Enterprises (SMEs), Financial services as well as Oil and Gas. The Event will
hold at the Renaissance Tower Hotel, Zurich. Date: 12th
-14th

September, 2018.
The Business and Investment Forum is aimed at consolidating and
increasing the momentum generated by the visit of the business delegation
from Switzerland to Nigeria led by Johann Schneider-Ammann, the
Federal Councillor in charge of Federal Department of Economic Affairs,
Education and Research from 21st to 23rd March, 2018. The forum will
therefore, provide a platform to bring together Nigerian Policy Makers,
Governors of states, Nigerian Entrepreneurs and investors, Swiss and
European Investors and companies for the mutual benefit of both
countries.
