Presidency sources said the President aims to use the opportunity to position Nigeria as a leading player in sustainable development, attract foreign investment, and foster partnerships aligned with the country’s national growth objectives.
The 2026 edition, themed “The Nexus of Next: All Systems Go,” focuses on bridging the gap between climate ambition and tangible action through three primary pillars: innovation, finance, and people.
The summit is a premier annual event that serves as a global forum for world leaders, industry experts, and civil society organisations.
Participants will address critical issues related to energy innovation and the financial infrastructure required for renewable energy transitions.
The visit underscores the strengthening alliance between Nigeria and the UAE, particularly in the areas of green energy and economic cooperation.
