Organised by the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MCI) and the Nigerien Agency for the Promotion of Private Investment and Strategic Projects (ANPIPS), with the strategic support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Forum aims to promote investment opportunities in Niger, strengthen economic partnerships and facilitate the implementation of strategic projects.<\/p>\n

      4. Background and Rationale<\/h2>\n

      4.1. Niger\u2019s Geographical and Economic Position<\/h3>\n

      With a territory covering approximately 1,267,000 km\u00b2 and an estimated population of nearly 28 million, Niger occupies a strategic position between North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa. This geographical location offers opportunities to expand trade and access regional markets.<\/p>\n

      The country possesses significant natural and productive resources, particularly in mining, oil, agriculture and energy. Developing these resources creates investment opportunities in industrial processing, infrastructure and domestic value chains.<\/p>\n

      4.2. Economic Sovereignty and Private-Sector Development<\/h3>\n

      In the context of national policy directions pursued since July 2023, economic sovereignty and the diversification of partnerships have become important elements of Niger\u2019s development strategy.<\/p>\n

      Efforts to improve the business environment include simplifying administrative procedures, improving access to financing, strengthening electricity supply and developing information technologies.<\/p>\n

      The private sector is expected to play a major role in wealth creation, employment generation and the development of national resources.<\/p>\n

      4.3. Rationale for the Forum<\/h3>\n

      N2IF\/F2IN 2026 aims to address three main challenges:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n
        \n
        \n

        Improving the visibility of investment opportunities and bankable projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n
        \n
        \n

        Strengthening trust between investors, project developers and public institutions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n
        \n
        \n

        Encouraging follow-up on commitments and the implementation of signed agreements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        The Forum aims to become a platform for networking and negotiations that helps transform economic opportunities into concrete investment projects.<\/p>\n

        5. Objectives of the Forum<\/h2>\n

        Overall Objective<\/h3>\n
