On 29 May 2025, the Executive Secretary/CEO of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC), Ms Aisha Rimi, joined senior government officials and business leaders to commission the British Trade Centre, Lagos, an initiative of the Nigerian-British Chamber of Commerce (NBCC) in partnership with the British High Commission.
As guest of honour, Ms Rimi delivered a goodwill message and performed the ribbon-cutting ceremony, reaffirming NIPC's commitment to strengthening Nigeria–UK economic ties and supporting platforms that enable trade, investment facilitation and public-private collaboration.
The Centre, positioned as a strategic hub for bilateral engagement, aligns with NIPC's mandate to attract and support investment into Nigeria. It also offers fresh opportunities for collaboration in priority sectors such as agribusiness, renewable energy, manufacturing and the digital economy.
