Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu today participated in a strategic investment roundtable hosted by the Nigeria Investment Promotion Commission in partnership with the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council.
Speaking at the event, the governor outlined key steps Lagos is taking to improve its investment climate and reinforce its position as Africa’s premier gateway for capital and innovation. He provided updates on the Lagos International Financial Centre (LIFC), noting progress into Phase 2, ongoing international collaborations including with London-based partners and supporting executive orders to strengthen the financial ecosystem.
Governor Sanwo-Olu also previewed the Invest Lagos 3.0 Summit, scheduled for June 9-10, 2026, in collaboration with CWEIC. The summit is anticipated to attract up to 600 global investors and serve as a major platform to showcase high-impact projects, accelerate infrastructure funding, and expand trade and investment linkages.
“Our goal is to continue positioning Lagos as Africa’s leading gateway for investment,” Sanwo-Olu emphasized. “We remain committed to building an environment where capital and innovation can thrive confidently and where opportunities for success are accessible to all.”
The roundtable is part of Nigeria’s wider efforts to draw increased foreign direct investment following recent economic reforms, with Lagos continuing to lead as the nation’s economic powerhouse and a vital link in Commonwealth investment networks.
