The Business Summit Group has set a target of more than $100 billion in investment commitments at the International Investors Summit Nigeria 2026, scheduled to hold in Abuja in November.
President of the Business Summit Group, Dato’ Dr. M. Haider Uzzaman, disclosed this on Tuesday at a press conference in Abuja, saying the summit would bring together international investors and business leaders from more than 50 countries.
According to him, the summit is designed to create direct investment opportunities by connecting international investors with Nigerian businesses, state governments and investment agencies seeking foreign direct investment and access to global markets.
Uzzaman and the Vice President of Business Summit Group in Nigeria, Mr. Innocent Obande, said Plateau State had secured investment commitments worth over $1 billion in the past six months following its participation in the Bangkok summit.
Uzzaman’s role in facilitating investment opportunities for Plateau State was also cited as one of the factors behind his appointment as Special Adviser on Investment to the Plateau State Governor, Barr.
