INTRO

Last week was all about VivaTech 2025, Europe’s largest technology gathering — and Nigeria made a bold, coordinated statement on the global stage. With over 180,000 attendees and 14,000 startups converging in Paris, our presence, powered by the largest African pavilion at the event, underscored our commitment to positioning Nigeria as a thriving hub for innovation, collaboration, and investment. 

From fintech to healthtech, 17 Nigerian startups showcased cutting-edge solutions to a global audience, while we engaged directly with international stakeholders to deepen tech diplomacy and forge new partnerships.

Brace up, as this edition of the Week in Review is a photo-heavy reflection of a truly impactful week, one that captured the energy, ambition, and collaborative spirit driving Nigeria’s digital economy under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. From strategic meetings and startup pitches to policy discussions and community engagements, our participation at VivaTech 2025 was both purposeful and inspiring.
