The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of Nigerian Economy, Mr. Wale Edun will lead robust discussions on how to transform and grow the nation’s economy to one trillion dollars at the 2025 Finance and Business Online Publishers (FiBOP) national annual conference.

The theme of the conference is:” Achieving $1 Trillion Economy: Leveraging Technology Innovations, Tax Reforms, and Opportunities in Renewable Energy, Agriculture and Financial services.

The FiBOP Conference is bringing together technocrats, leaders of thought, captains of industry, the academia and key players from across all sectors of the economy to discuss the ways to put the country on the path of accelerated economic growth and development.

The FiBOP 2025 National Annual Conference will hold on October 18th to 19th, 2025 at Orchid Hotels, Lekki, Lagos State.

The 2025 conference which has continued to garner support and sponsorship from some of the most reputable organisations and institutions in the nation’s economy has gotten firm commitments from the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), emPLE Insurance Limited, Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Polaris Bank, Zenith Bank, Fidelity Bank, Universal Insurance and Nestle Nigeria Plc. These organizations alongside others will be joining forces to fast track the process towards achieving the one trillion dollars economy by year 2030.

This conference is pointedly an integral part of the renewed hope agenda of the President Bola Ahmed administration designed to chart a clear plan for securing successful mutual accountability and investment strategies, crucial for Nigeria’s economic growth and development, particularly in areas of technology innovations, tax reforms, renewable energy, and agriculture.

Specifically, technocrats and speakers from different sectors of the economy will also identify innovative strategies for diversifying from dependence on oil, adapting technology, fostering innovation, investing in renewable energy, insurance, agriculture, and services.

The conference organisers have expressed optimism that more institutions will join the train to attain the $1 trillion economy by 2030 as a means of ensuring improved living conditions for the citizens of the country.
