Big 5 Construct Nigeria: A Catalyst for Growth in the Construction Industry

 

As the largest construction industry event in Nigeria, Big 5 Construct Nigeria returns for its 4th edition, set to take place from September 24 to 26, 2024, at the Landmark Centre in Lagos.

This pivotal event will gather over 9,000 professionals and more than 150 exhibitors from 20 countries, showcasing the immense potential and dynamic activity within Nigeria’s burgeoning construction sector.

A Thriving Industry Landscape

The construction industry in Nigeria is poised for substantial growth, projected to expand at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.4% from 2024 to 2028, according to ABIQ. This optimistic forecast is largely attributed to the government’s deliberate infrastructure development strategies and supportive policies. The focus on economic development, substantial public and private investments in the housing sector, and the strengthening of external demand are reshaping the construction landscape and paving the way for a more robust and sustainable future.

Mehtap Gürsoy, Portfolio Director – Construction at dmg events, emphasizes the importance of this year’s event, stating, “Big 5 Construct Nigeria is timed to match the surge in construction activity in the country, creating significant demand for innovative products and solutions, particularly from key buyers involved in ongoing and upcoming projects in Nigeria’s $128 billion construction market.”

Connecting Professionals and Opportunities

Big 5 Construct Nigeria serves as a vital platform for connecting industry professionals, facilitating partnerships, and fostering collaborations that are instrumental in delivering the products, services, and expertise needed for a rapidly evolving market.

The event will also feature four country pavilions, showcasing unique construction solutions from Austria, China, Egypt, and Türkiye. In addition, countries including India, USA, Iran, and Switzerland will participate, highlighting the international interest and investment in Nigeria’s construction potential.

Knowledge Sharing Through Big 5 Talks

In addition to showcasing innovative products and services, Big 5 Construct Nigeria will feature 25 Continuing Professional Development (CPD)-certified Big 5 Talks. These sessions will cover pressing themes such as architecture & design, facilities management, project management, technology, and sustainability. With insights from over 30 industry experts, attendees will engage in crucial discussions on project financing, cost management, stakeholder collaboration, and the transformative impact of Building Information Modeling (BIM).

Prominent speakers such as Ibikunle Dashur, Country Director at Turner & Townsend Gerald Madondo, and Eniafe Enianu Emmanuel bring their expertise to the platform, further enriching the dialogue and knowledge-sharing initiative that Big 5 Construct Nigeria embodies.

The event is made possible through the support of key sponsors and organizations, including CDK Industries, the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS), and the Project Management Institute (PMI) – Nigerian Chapter. Their involvement underscores the importance of collective efforts in driving the industry forward.

Big 5 Construct Nigeria is more than just an exhibition; it is a significant gathering of thought leaders, innovative businesses, and skilled professionals dedicated to shaping the future of the construction sector in Nigeria.
