Lagos to Host Airport Business Summit in July

Lagos is preparing to host a significant gathering of stakeholders in the Nigerian aviation sector, as the 2025 edition of the Airport Business Summit and Expo (ABSE) is scheduled to take place from July 15 to 17. The event will be held at the NIGAV Expo Centre, located at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport. As the only dedicated airport business summit of its kind in Nigeria, ABSE is specifically designed to highlight the economic aspects of air transport from an airport-centric viewpoint.
This annual summit serves as a crucial platform, bringing together a diverse range of key players, including airlines, regulatory bodies, private investors, airport managers, and government officials. Their collective aim is to strategize and define a clear path toward establishing a more sustainable and attractive investment environment within the airport ecosystem. The event is organized through a collaborative effort with prominent institutions such as the Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), the Nigerian Transport Commissioners’ Forum, and the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).
The central theme for this year’s summit is ‘Investment Opportunities in Airport Public-Private Partnerships’. According to Mr. Fortune Idu, the convener of the summit, the 2025 edition is specifically tailored to foster more in-depth discussions around methods and strategies for attracting private capital into the Nigerian aviation sector. This sector has historically been predominantly reliant on public funding, and the summit aims to facilitate a shift towards greater private investment.
