The Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) has announced the 32nd Nigerian Economic Summit (NES #32), scheduled to be held on 26-27 October 2026 at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja, under the theme: "Growth that Works: Delivering Jobs, Productivity and Shared Prosperity."
At a critical moment in Nigeria's economic journey, the Summit will convene policymakers, business leaders, development partners, investors, civil society organisations, and young Nigerians to chart a practical pathway from economic stabilisation to investment-led growth, productive enterprise, quality jobs, and broad-based prosperity.
Over the past two years, Nigeria has implemented significant macroeconomic reforms aimed at restoring fiscal sustainability and strengthening economic fundamentals. While these reforms have laid an important foundation for long-term growth, the challenge now is ensuring that economic progress translates into tangible improvements in the lives of citizens.
The theme of NES #32 reflects this national priority. The Summit will focus on how Nigeria can move beyond growth measured solely by economic indicators and deliver growth that creates jobs, improves productivity, raises incomes, reduces poverty, and expands opportunities across all regions of the country.
