The organisers of the Eko Revenue Plus Summit have expressed optimism that the landmark event will enhance the revenue generation capabilities of Lagos State through robust public-private partnerships (PPP).
Scheduled for September 25 and 26, 2024, the summit is expected to be a catalyst for sustainable economic development, bringing together government agencies, private sector players, and international experts.
The summit will focus on the critical role of PPPs in driving economic development across key sectors such as property and real estate, digital economy, circular economy, energy/IPP, and the informal sector.
By fostering collaboration between the public and private sectors, Lagos State aims to unlock new revenue streams and create a more vibrant and inclusive economy.
Speaking at a press conference, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Taxation and Revenue, Mr Ogungbo Abdul-Kabir Opeyemi, commended the state governor, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, for his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to the sustainable development of Lagos in line with the Lagos State Development plan 2052 and his well thought out T.H.E.M.E.S + Agenda. He highlighted the critical role the Summit will play in supporting the governor’s agenda by shaping the future of Lagos State’s economy.
