Following the success of the “Nordic Business and Cultural Days” held in Lagos in 2012 and the continued promotion of Nordic innovation, values, and partnerships, the Nordic Nigeria Connect (NNC) was reimagined in 2019 as a biennial flagship event. Now in its 4th edition, NNC 2025 builds on the momentum of previous gatherings in 2019, 2021, and 2023, further strengthening Nordic-Nigerian collaboration through impactful exchanges and partnerships.
The event targets sectors where there is strong mutual interest and potential for increased cooperation between Nigeria and the Nordic countries. NNC 2025 continues to blend business and cultural activities, using innovative formats to engage a broader audience and foster meaningful connections.
The programme focuses on four key business segments, shaped by stakeholder input and Nordic company interests. Each Nordic country leads one thematic area, while maintaining a joint Nordic approach to collaboration and visibility.
For Sweden in 2025, the thematic focus is on Digital Technology. Team Sweden aims to deepen Swedish-Nigerian relations by promoting partnerships, trade, and investment opportunities. The agenda highlights smart digital solutions in areas such as connectivity, AI and cybersecurity, with matchmaking opportunities between Swedish and Nigerian businesses.
Target groups include Nordic and Nigerian companies, investors, government representatives, and relevant organizations. Business-to-business meetings and stakeholder engagements will be arranged based on interest and requests.
