Commissioner for Commerce, Cooperatives, Trade and Investment Mrs Folashade Bada Ambrose revealed this at the press conference to kick off the two high-profile events being organised in conjunction with the United Nations System in Nigeria, Lagos State Office of Sustainable Development Goals, Sterling Bank and Arise News at the Press Centre, Alausa, Ikeja today.

According to the Commissioner, the Lagos Invest Summit 2.0 aptly themed “Scaling Action: Bold Solutions Towards Making Lagos a 21st Century Economy” is intentionally crafted to reflect Lagos State’s visionary ambitions as articulated in our comprehensive Lagos State Development Plan (LSDP 2052) and vividly encapsulated in Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s dynamic T.H.E.M.E.S+ Agenda.

Her words: “The essence of this Summit symbolises our deliberate transition from aspiration to realisation, potential to performance and discussions to tangible developmental achievements. At its core, this Summit is a powerful and strategic platform designed to galvanise meaningful collaborations and catalytic partnerships. It seeks to convene visionary investors, forward-looking policymakers, industry pioneers, global stakeholders and influential development partners under one roof.

A defining feature of the Summit will be our dedicated Deal Rooms, meticulously designed spaces where political heads and senior officials from our Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) will be given the opportunity to articulate precise and compelling investment pitches to both local and global investors. These bespoke high-value matchmaking sessions will foster meaningful engagements and lead to partnerships essential for Lagos’ sustained economic vitality and inclusive prosperity.”
