Lagos, Nigeria – August 26, 2025 – All On, a Shell-funded impact investment company, participated in the 2025 Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) International Business Conference & Expo, held at Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos. The event, themed “Invest Nigeria”, brought together global business leaders, diplomats, and policymakers to explore investment opportunities across Nigeria’s diverse sectors.

The conference featured a robust lineup of speakers and dignitaries, including Dr. Olufemi Ogunyemi, MD, Nigeria Export Processing Zones Authority, Mr. Christian Mulamula, Principal Country Officer, IFC Nigeria, Dr. Christian Ebeke, IMF Resident Representative, Dr. Awele V. Elumelu, OFR, Chairperson, Avon Medical Practice, Amb. Christophe Bazivamo, Ambassador of Rwanda to Nigeria, Amb. SUZUKI Hideo, Ambassador of Japan to Nigeria, Amb. Peter Ryan, Ambassador of Ireland to Nigeria, Amb. Mohamadou Musa Njie, Ambassador of Gambia to Nigeria, Selestine Gervas Kakele, High Commissioner of Tanzania to Nigeria, Amb. Johannes Lehne, Ambassador of Germany to Nigeria, amongst others.

The two-day event also featured country-to-country business sessions, regulatory panels, and private luncheons with diplomats and government officials, reinforcing Nigeria’s position as a gateway for investment into Africa.

An interesting part of the event was a keynote delivery by Ronald Adams, Chairman of All On and Managing Director of Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo), titled “Investment Opportunities in Nigeria: A Renewable Energy Perspective.” In his speech, Adams emphasised the critical role of renewable energy in Nigeria’s development and the vast potential for private sector investment.

“The opportunity in Nigeria is real. The needs are urgent. And the ecosystem is vibrant. Now is the time to invest, not just in businesses, but in Nigeria’s future, a future that is inclusive, sustainable, and resilient,” said Ronald Adams.

All On’s impact since its inception in 2016, including over 50 direct investments, over $40 million committed, and clean energy access provided to over 1.2 million Nigerians across 190 underserved communities was highlighted. Initiatives like the Demand Aggregation for Renewable Technology (DART) and the DARES programmes, which are transforming Nigeria’s energy landscape, were spotlighted.

All On remains committed to powering progress in Nigeria through strategic investments in clean energy and fostering partnerships that drive inclusive growth.
