National alignment
Build consensus around innovation-driven employment.
Moving from national conversation to coordinated execution.
The Nigeria Innovation and Enterprise Working Summit is an outcome-driven platform for activating the I-FEEDING agenda through alignment, working sessions and accountable commitments.
Strategic proposition
NIEWS is designed as a working summit, not a conventional conference: participation, sessions and outputs are organised around decisions, responsibilities and follow-through.
NIEWS 2026 establishes the foundation year of a longer national innovation-to-employment agenda, bringing together actors whose programmes and capabilities must work in concert.
