THE TWIN TRADE
Where Global Meets Nigeria—To Build, Trade, and Celebrate
The TWIN Trade is a global business platform connecting diaspora professionals, global talent, entrepreneurs, investors, and African businesses.
Each year, we host a landmark gathering where communities from across the world meet face‑to‑face to trade, collaborate, and celebrate. Founders and SMEs present real challenges in fintech, logistics, supply chain tech, digital wellness, exports, and more, while investors, partners, and solution providers step in to solve them. Alongside the celebration, introductions turn into verified deals, partnerships, and opportunities that continue long after the event.
