Strengthening Bilateral Trade and Investment for Sustainable Economic Growth
Africa’ and in particular Nigeria's true strength lies not just in its abundant raw materials, but in its ability to process, produce, and add value locally.
The Nigeria-Canada Partnerships, Trade and Investment Conference (NCPTIC 2025) is an initiative aimed at strengthening economic ties between Nigeria and Canada by fostering trade, investment, and business collaborations between the two countries.
Key Sectors of Focus:
-Agriculture & Agri-tech – Food processing, mechanized farming, and sustainable practices.
- Energy & Mining – Oil & gas, renewable energy, and solid minerals.
- Technology & Innovation – Fintech, AI, and digital transformation.
- Manufacturing & Infrastructure– Industrial growth and smart city development.
- Healthcare & Education – Collaboration in medical research and skills development.
Expected Outcomes:
- Increased trade agreements and joint ventures.
- More Canadian investments in Nigerian projects.
- Stronger diplomatic and economic relations.
NCPTIC 2025 aligns with Nigeria’s economic diversification goals and Canada’s interest in expanding trade with Africa. The conference will involve government officials, business leaders, and industry experts from both nations.
Together, we can be self-sufficient, with a diversified economy.

Let's Start to Build Together at NCPTIC 2025
NCPTIC is the platform to build bridges between Canadian Investors and the Nigerian Mining industry for collective growth. It doesn’t just focus on mining extraction but explores how mining can be the catalyst for broader industrial growth.
Here are 3 reasons why AFNIS 2025 is a must-attend:
It presents opportunities to partner with local industries to move up the value chain, from mining raw materials to refining and manufacturing products like batteries and solar panels within Africa. The Renewable Energy Association of Nigeria intends to set up a mining fund to support mining companies developing energy minerals.
Canadian Mining companies can come and meet local operators to explore how local content strategies can unlock government incentives and long-term partnerships. NCPTIC will create opportunity for the mining industry to talk about the financing support the Nigerian Content Development & Monitoring Board provides to industrial mining companies.
It offers a platform to collaborate across sectors—from finance to energy—to ensure mining operations benefit from the infrastructure needed to thrive.
