Nigeria has risen to the forefront of Africa's digital economy with a powerful ecosystem that is both homegrown and resilient - fuelled by government initiatives, global tech enterprises, and a thriving startup ecosystem propelling Nigeria's future with tech opportunities in talent development and digital infrastructure to help achieve the goal of US1 trillion economy by 2030.
Central to Nigeria - and Africa's - ambitions of digital sovereignty lie in the opportunity to upskill, operate and expand grassroots talent and organisations. Perfectly timed to support these ambitions is the inaugural edition of GITEX NIGERIA which will act as a convergence point for key local and international decision makers, not only in tech but across multiple sectors embracing digital transformation.
Held under the patronage of His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, GITEX NIGERIA premieres across Abuja and Lagos from 1-4 September 2025. It is supported by the Federal Ministry of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy in collaboration with the National Information Technology Development Agency NITDA. The event is endorsed by Lagos State Government, and organised by KAOUN International, the global organiser of GITEX events.
