Nigeria is poised to make a major leap in Africa’s digital transformation journey with the IEEE Nigeria International Conference on Digital Transformation, NIGERCON 2026, set to take place in Lagos. The conference will be held on November 5‑6, 2026, at the University of Lagos in Akoka and will explore the convergence of cutting‑edge technologies and digital innovation across key sectors.
Topics will range from connectivity and communications—including 5G, 6G, telecommunication systems, and the Internet of Things—to artificial intelligence, data science, machine learning, and cybersecurity. Researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, and global technology experts will gather to discuss how emerging technologies can drive inclusive economic growth, improve public‑sector efficiency, and enhance industrial competitiveness throughout Nigeria and the wider African region.
As Nigeria’s digital economy increasingly contributes to national GDP, NIGERCON 2026 will serve as a strategic bridge linking government, academia, and the private sector. The event aligns with national priorities that emphasize digital public infrastructure, innovation‑driven growth, and tech‑enabled services in healthcare, education, finance, and smart infrastructure.
