Ahead of the 56th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) 2026, the Federal Government of Nigeria has announced the establishment of Nigeria House Davos, the country’s first official national house on the Davos Promenade. The WEF meeting is scheduled to take place from January 19–23, 2026, in Davos, Switzerland.
Nigeria House Davos is designed as a strategic platform to showcase Nigeria’s economic reforms, investment readiness, institutional strength, and cultural identity on the global stage. The initiative aims to strengthen foreign direct investment flows, deepen strategic partnerships, and advance Nigeria’s global economic positioning in line with the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
The project is being implemented through a Public–Private Partnership (PPP) involving key federal ministries—Industry, Trade & Investment, Finance, and Foreign Affairs—together with private-sector partners. Eviola & Co Integrated Services Ltd serves as the lead coordinating and executing organisation, in consortium with Lex-Con Advisory Services Ltd and UFAM Services Nigeria Ltd, alongside international technical and delivery partners.
Nigeria House Davos will act as a sovereign convening platform for ministerial engagements, high-level roundtables, policy dialogues, investment meetings, cultural diplomacy, and bilateral discussions. Its program will span five thematic days, covering sectors including 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, and Cross-Sector Convergence, with finance, legislation, and investor assurance integrated across all discussions.
For decades, nations and global corporations have leveraged Davos Houses as instruments of soft power, economic diplomacy, and global influence. Nigeria House Davos positions the country to engage global decision-makers directly, present its narrative from its own perspective, and showcase itself as a reform-driven economy open for partnership and investment.
The Presidency has encouraged strategic participation by public institutions, private sector actors, development finance institutions, and international partners to ensure Nigeria’s debut at Davos is unified, dignified, and impactful.
According to Abiodun Oladunjoye, Director of Information & Public Relations, State House, Nigeria House Davos reflects the country’s confidence, ambition, and readiness to engage the world, presenting its narrative with clarity, credibility, and purpose.
