IPFA West Africa: Lagos: Private Investment in Infrastructure: The States as Enablers

---

There is a significant gap between Nigeria’s infrastructure needs and the funding available from the Nigerian government for infrastructure projects. Private investment in infrastructure projects is a viable means of bridging the gap. With Lagos State recently announcing that the state is at the final stage of selecting a new bidder for the 4th Mainland Bridge project, this event focuses on what Nigerian states can do to encourage private investment in infrastructure. This event will feature panel discussions between key public and private stakeholders.

Please note that no further registrations will be processed. However, walk-ins are welcome - we will make up a name badge for you at the door.
