Nigeria’s NIES, Brevity Anderson Join AEW 2025 as Gold Partner
African Energy Week (AEW) 2025: Invest in African Energies is proud to announce the Nigeria International Energy Summit (NIES) and Brevity Anderson as a Gold Partner. As the convener and organizer of NIES – the official energy conference of the Federal Government of Nigeria – Brevity Anderson has long played a pivotal role in advancing dialogue and partnerships in Nigeria’s dynamic energy landscape. Their participation at AEW 2025 affirms the centrality of collaboration, local content development and African-led investment platforms in accelerating the continent’s energy growth.
NIES, under the stewardship of Brevity Anderson, has established itself as a cornerstone event for Nigerian and regional stakeholders, bringing together policymakers, investors and international partners to craft practical solutions for sustainable energy development. The platform has been instrumental in showcasing investment-ready projects, promoting the role of national oil companies and indigenous players, and positioning Nigeria as a critical gateway to energy opportunities across West Africa. As the African energy sector undergoes profound transformation – driven by the need for cleaner technologies, energy security and industrial development – NIES continues to serve as a catalyst for public-private collaboration and regional integration.
With proven oil reserves exceeding 36 billion barrels and natural gas reserves of over 200 trillion cubic feet, Nigeria continues to attract strong investor interest across the upstream, midstream and downstream segments. Recent policy reforms, including an Executive Order designed to slash oil and gas project costs, have laid a foundation for greater regulatory clarity, improved fiscal terms and a more competitive investment environment. At the same time, Nigeria is pursuing aggressive gas monetization strategies while driving investments in modular refineries, pipeline infrastructure and local content development. These developments reflect Nigeria’s broader commitment to creating a more efficient, diversified and self-reliant energy sector that can serve both domestic and export markets.
The Gold Partnership between AEW and NIES reflects a broader shared vision: ensuring African voices lead the energy transition and that investment flows into the infrastructure, innovation and capacity-building required to deliver affordable, reliable energy to all. Through this partnership, AEW 2025: Invest in African Energies will spotlight Nigerian-led initiatives, encourage intra-African investment and promote tangible outcomes in alignment with the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development Goals.
“NIES has built a reputation as one of the most impactful platforms for shaping Nigeria’s and Africa’s energy future. Brevity Anderson’s commitment to advancing homegrown investment, fostering strategic dialogue and promoting local content is exactly the kind of leadership we need across the continent. We are honored to welcome them as a Gold Partner at AEW 2025, where we will continue to drive African solutions to African energy challenges,” says NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.
AEW: Invest in African Energies is the platform of choice for project operators, financiers, technology providers and government, and has emerged as the official place to sign deals in African energy. Visit www.aecweek.com for more information about this exciting event.
