The Nigeria International Energy Summit is the official Industry event of the Federal Government of Nigeria and the only officially endorsed at the highest level of the Federal Executive Council. It is a global platform for networking, discussing, interacting with energy stakeholders, and signing high-level investment deals.
Over the years, the event has brought together governments, national and international oil companies, independents, investors, the C&G community, and service providers. NIES prides itself on offering unrivaled opportunities that drive the sort of deal-making that reshapes the energy landscape.
NIES connects 50+ ministers and government leaders, 300+ leading speakers, and over 2,000+ senior delegates across 5 days of pioneering industry-leading insight, delivering deals and transactions across our conference, exhibition, and elite networking platforms.
