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.
