The aim is to build on the success of last year’s inaugural Growth Summit held in Geneva, Switzerland.

 

The Riyadh meeting will focus on addressing pressing global challenges across three core themes: Revitalizing Global Collaboration, Fostering Inclusive Growth, and Catalyzing Action on Energy for Development.

 

The event serves as a platform to bridge the growing North-South divide exacerbated by emerging economic policies, the energy transition, and geopolitical shocks.

 

According to Ajuri Ngelale, President Tinubu’s spokesman, the Nigerian leader and his entourage will utilize the opportunity to engage in discussions furthering his “Renewed Hope Agenda” for Nigeria.

 

The forum provides a platform for global leaders to come together and find solutions to pressing economic and energy challenges, and President Tinubu’s participation is expected to contribute significantly to the discussions.
