Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Taiwo Oyedele, Co-Chair of the Lagos International Financial Centre (LIFC), Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, and Moniepoint Group Chief Executive Officer, Tosin Eniolorunda, will headline the third edition of the Invest Lagos Summit 3.0, taking place from June 8 to 9, 2026.
Organised by the Lagos State Government through the Ministry of Commerce, Cooperatives, Trade and Investment, the summit is aimed at strengthening Lagos’ position as Africa’s leading destination for investment, trade, innovation, infrastructure development, and strategic economic partnerships.
The two-day event will convene policymakers, investors, development finance institutions, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and industry stakeholders to explore investment opportunities across key sectors, including technology, infrastructure, energy, manufacturing, finance, creative industries, tourism, and urban development.
This year’s programme will feature discussions on Lagos as Africa’s Global Gateway, Technology and Innovation, Unlocking Investment Opportunities, Cities of the Future, Global Partnerships for Growth, Talent, Creativity and Culture, as well as Energy and Sustainability.
According to the Commissioner for Information and Strategy and Head of the Summit’s Media Subcommittee, Gbenga Omotoso, the event has been deliberately designed to drive concrete outcomes and attract new investment flows into Lagos State.
He said the summit would showcase ongoing government investments and emerging opportunities in transportation, technology, energy, manufacturing, tourism, and urban development, while providing a platform for local and international investors to engage directly with project promoters and policymakers.
“Invest Lagos 3.0 is more than a conference; it is a strategic platform designed to connect investors with opportunities, facilitate meaningful partnerships, and showcase Lagos as Africa’s most attractive investment destination. Through this summit, we are bringing together government leaders, global investors, development institutions, and business executives to explore opportunities that will unlock growth, create jobs, and accelerate economic development across Lagos and Nigeria,” Omotoso said.
Beyond keynote sessions and panel discussions, the summit will feature investment pitches by state governors, exhibitions by participating organisations, business-to-business networking opportunities, and a gala dinner.
Participants will also undertake guided visits to some of Lagos’ flagship industrial and infrastructure projects, including the Dangote Petroleum Refinery, Lagos Free Zone, Lagos Port, and RusselSmith’s advanced manufacturing facility, providing first-hand insight into the state’s expanding investment ecosystem.
The Lagos State Government expects the summit to further strengthen investor confidence and catalyse partnerships that support sustainable economic growth and job creation across the state and the wider Nigerian economy.
