AbujaStartupExpo

CONVERGE 2026 is Nigeria’s most outcome-focused startup gathering. One day. 1,500+ founders, investors, corporate executives, and government officials. One shared agenda: to close something real.

This is not a conference. It is not a festival. It is the room where term sheets begin, partnerships are signed, and funding rounds are started. In Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city, where the people who write the rules, deploy the capital, and build the companies are all in the same building.

WHAT HAPPENS AT CONVERGE

CONVERGE is built around four dedicated experience zones:

CAPITAL ZONE: A curated deal floor for investor-founder conversations. Where pre-matched pitch sessions and funding discussions happen behind closed doors.

BUILDERS ZONE: Live startup pitches, product showcases, and founder sessions. Thirty selected startups take the stage in front of 1,500+ ecosystem participants.

ENTERPRISE ZONE: B2B deal-making, corporate-startup partnerships, and supplier discovery. Where established companies find the startups redefining their industries.

POLICY ZONE: Government officials, regulators, and ecosystem builders in Abuja, where policy is written. These conversations move at the speed of legislation.
