The bilateral ties between Nigeria and Egypt have a long history, originating in the initial years of Nigeria’s independence. The two countries formed diplomatic relations in 1961 due to the close relationship that was present between Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Nigeria’s first prime minister, and Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser. Since that time, the connection between Nigeria and Egypt has been characterized by joint collaboration and assistance in numerous areas, such as political, economic, and cultural.

This is simply the foundation the B2B Diaspora Conference strives to build on.

However, the highly anticipated B2B Diaspora Conference, initially scheduled to take place in Egypt on December 13th, 2024, has faced a temporary setback due to unforeseen circumstances. The organizers have made the difficult decision to reschedule the event to February 5th-7th, 2025.

While this change may cause inconvenience to some, it is imperative to acknowledge that this strategic alteration will ultimately ensure a more robust and successful conference.

The B2B Diaspora Conference has been envisioned as a premier platform for fostering bilateral peace and prosperity between two African heavyweights, Nigeria and Egypt. These nations have long-standing bilateral ties, built on a foundation of shared cultural heritage, economic cooperation, and strategic interests.

The conference seeks to elevate this bilateral partnership to unprecedented heights, exploring new avenues for collaboration, innovation, and development.

The geographical proximity and historical connections between Nigeria and Egypt provide a unique setting for enhancing economic exchanges, trade volumes, and investment opportunities.

Egypt, with its established infrastructural backbone, can benefit from Nigeria’s vast energy and natural resource endowments. Conversely, Nigeria can tap into Egypt’s expertise in agriculture, manufacturing, and services. By leveraging their collective strengths, the two nations can create a win-win scenario, driving growth and prosperity for their citizens.

The B2B Diaspora Conference is designed to facilitate this synergistic relationship by bringing together key stakeholders from both countries. The event will feature high-caliber discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities, allowing participants to engage, collaborate, and forge bilaterally lasting connections. The conference will be a melting pot of ideas, where experts from diverse fields will share insights, best practices, and innovative solutions.

To ensure a strong commitment and undeterred involvement from major stakeholders, the rescheduling of the event was necessary.

Below is the video of Amb. Peter Olufosoye, President of Nigerians In Diaspora Organization, Egypt Chapter giving some insights about this subject.

The new dates, February 5th-7th, 2025, provide a more conducive environment for participants to fully immerse themselves in the conference experience. The additional time will also enable organizers to finalize logistical arrangements, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable event for all attendees.

We understand that this change might have come at an unexpected time, but we appreciate the understanding and cooperation of our valued participants and partners. We are confident that the revised dates will ultimately lead to a more impactful and productive conference, ultimately benefitting both African nations.

The B2B Diaspora Conference is a testament to the enduring spirit of partnership and cooperation between these African nations. We look forward to welcoming participants from Nigeria and Egypt to this historic event, where together, we can unlock new opportunities for mutual growth and bilateral prosperity.
