The trade expo in addition to its broad-based outlook will have a major focus on Chinese engineering technology products.

The organising group’s press office, which includes over 8 agencies affiliated with the Huna Province of China and the Nigerian Federal trade agency, stated that the event starts on November 28 and will run for three days until November 30 at the Abuja Trade & Convention Centre.
The theme of the event is “China and Africa Joining Hands for a Better Future,” and will feature a series of activities focused on multiple sectors, including investment and trade, infrastructure, healthcare, and engineering machinery.
The Opening Ceremony and China-Africa Infrastructure Cooperation Forum (Nigeria) will commence at 10.00 am and focuses on “the opportunities and challenges in China-Africa infrastructure cooperation, conducting in-depth discussions on hot and cutting-edge topics in the industry, such as infrastructure connectivity, innovation in investment and financing modes, green and sustainable development and business transformation and upgrading, bringing together stakeholders for exchanges and cooperation, and promoting the signing and implementing of key projects.”
