A leading voice in the export finance ecosystem, Prince Joseph Idiong, is set to address key stakeholders at the forthcoming GTR West Africa 2026 scheduled for April 22–23 in Lagos.
The high-level forum, organised by Global Trade Review, will take place at the prestigious Eko Hotel Lagos, bringing together industry experts, financiers, policymakers, and business leaders from across West Africa and beyond.
Idiong, Director General of Nigerian Association of Exporters, extended an open invitation to participants, noting that his session will focus on navigating the complexities and emerging opportunities within the export finance landscape.
He explained that the forum will provide practical insights into trade facilitation, risk management, and funding structures essential for strengthening cross-border commerce in the region.
GTR West Africa has continued to position itself as a strategic platform for dialogue on trade and investment, offering participants access to global best practices while addressing region-specific challenges.
With growing emphasis on non-oil exports and economic diversification in Nigeria and across the sub-region, the 2026 edition is expected to attract significant interest from both public and private sector stakeholders.
