Last week concluded with my participation at the 13th Nordic-African Business Summit in Oslo, Norway. The summit provided an excellent platform to discuss Nigeria’s evolving role in the global economy and explore opportunities for deeper collaboration with Norway. I had a productive meeting with H.E. @EspenBarthEide, Norway's Minister of Foreign Affairs @NorwayMFA. We discussed Norway’s support for Nigeria’s regional security efforts and Nigeria’s role in sustaining democracy within ECOWAS. We also explored cooperation in health, agriculture, and green energy, with Nigeria ready to provide necessary guarantees for funding and risk management. I met with Tellef Thorleifsson, CEO of @Norfund, to discuss Nigeria’s economic stabilization efforts and investment protection. We proposed partnerships with agencies like NSIA for green energy projects and climate change initiatives, with an invitation to establish a NORFUND office in Abuja. During my meeting with @KarolineLinde, CEO @LaerdalGH, and Gudleik Njå, CEO of Laerdal Group, we reviewed their ongoing projects, including tech-startup investments and efforts to reduce infant and maternal mortality in Nigeria. We discussed replicating the Safer Birth Initiative, which will provide training to 120,000 healthcare workers. Finally, in a keynote conversation with @AkinolaLanre, Head of Content at @NABAorg, we explored Nigeria’s role in the evolving global order. Discussions focused on the G20 bid, and the call for a permanent UN Security Council seat. We also emphasized the growing role of emerging economies, the AfCFTA, and Nigeria’s fintech sector, focusing on new alliances for trade, climate action, and the green economy. #NABA2024
