FG Unveils Nigeria House Davos Ahead of WEF 2026
The Federal Government has announced plans to debut Nigeria House Davos at the 56th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, scheduled for January 19 to 23, 2026, marking a significant expansion of Nigeria’s economic diplomacy on the global stage.
Nigeria House Davos will be Nigeria’s first official National House on the Davos Promenade, providing a central platform for showcasing the country’s economic reforms, investment opportunities, institutional capacity and cultural heritage to global policymakers, investors and development partners.
According to a press statement signed by the Director of Information and Public Relations, State House, Abiodun Oladunjoye and dated January 9, 2026, the initiative is designed to attract foreign direct investment, strengthen international partnerships and enhance Nigeria’s global economic profile in line with the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
The project is being implemented through a Public–Private Partnership (PPP) involving key government institutions, including the Federal Ministries of Industry, Trade and Investment, Finance, and Foreign Affairs, in collaboration with the private sector.
Eviola & Co Integrated Services Ltd is serving as the lead coordinating and executing organisation, working with Lex-Con Advisory Services Ltd and UFAM Services Nigeria Ltd, alongside international technical partners.
Nigeria House Davos is expected to function as a sovereign engagement hub throughout the WEF meeting, hosting ministerial sessions, high-level roundtables, policy discussions, investment meetings and cultural diplomacy events.
Activities will span five thematic days focusing on solid minerals and mining value chains; trade infrastructure and agriculture; climate investment, energy and environmental sustainability; digital trade and technology; and the creative economy and cultural exports. Cross-cutting issues such as finance, legislation, investment security and investor assurance will be integrated across all sessions.
The Federal Government noted that several countries and multinational corporations have long used Davos Houses as tools for economic diplomacy and soft power, adding that Nigeria’s entry into this space allows the country to tell its story directly and engage global decision-makers on its own terms.
The Presidency has called on public institutions, private sector leaders, development finance institutions and international partners to support the initiative, stressing the importance of a coordinated and dignified national presence at Davos.
Nigeria House Davos, the government said, underscores Nigeria’s readiness to engage the global economy with confidence, clarity and purpose.
