Finance Min, Wale Edun, to Keynote FiBOP Annual Confab Oct 18

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.

Edun believes that domestic savings are the engine of sustainable investment. “A trusted and stable financial system, anchored by strong institutions is essential to lifting millions out of poverty and driving Nigeria’s transition to a $1 trillion economy”

Meanwhile, President, Finance and Business Online Publishers FiBOP, Mr. Charles Onwuatogwu has called on more companies and organisations to partner with the association in alignment with federal government’s objective of wealth creation and advancing the dividends of democracy for the betterment of the people

He also assured that partners and sponsors will gain a wide range of benefits including well-articulated media hype via press interviews, media publicity promotions, display of their organisation’s backdrops and similar publicity initiatives to mention but a few.

FiBOP is a registered body by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) made up of seasoned online publishers and editors, with wealth of experience in the print and electronic media, who are dedicated to promoting informed and balanced reporting of economic events and activities, wealth creation, and contributing to the growth and development of the Nigerian economy and the continent of Africa.
