Jack Ma recently visited the African Continent for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by several things. For instance, he said he was surprised the internet was almost twice as fast as many developed economies and also by the caliber of entrepreneurs. After his visit, he announced he was considering investing on the continent.

Why Nigeria? Nigeria is a middle-income, mixed economy and emerging market, with expanding manufacturing, financial, service, communications, technology and entertainment sectors. It is ranked as the 21st-largest economy in the world in terms of nominal GDP, and the 20th-largest in terms of purchasing power parity.
It is the largest economy in Africa; its re-emergent manufacturing sector became the largest on the continent in 2013, and it produces a large proportion of goods and services for the West African sub-continent. Nigeria’s GDP Size is $493 billion based on nominal GDP (2016) having shrunk from a high of $574 billion in 2014 due to the slump in global oil prices. In terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) , Nigeria’s GDP stands at $1.1 trillion.
Due to the country’s high growth potential, it is regarded as a MINT country. MINT is an acronym referring to the economies of Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Turkey. The term was originally coined by Fidelity Investments, a Boston-based asset management firm, and was popularized by Jim O'Neill of Goldman Sachs, who had created the term BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India & China).
According to the United States Government, Nigeria is expected to become a top 15 economy in the world by 2030. Many economic analysts expect it will happen sooner.
Security Security is a major concern for many first-time Chinese visitors to Nigeria. It is a fact that there are isolated incidents of personal safety issues, particularly limited to Maiduguri, a city in Borno State which borders the countries of Chad & Niger. The Federal Government of Nigeria has been able to confine such issues to a small area and is working on eliminating the security threats altogether.
It should be noted that Maiduguri is almost 3 hours by air from Lagos and the tour will not include a visit to Maiduguri.
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, a Nigerian with a net-worth of $16 billion drives himself around within the country and when asked about security advised foreign businessmen and diplomats outside Africa to make concerted effort to visit the continent and discover the changes that have taken place so as to correct some of the existing negative perceptions.
He said, “Don’t be lazy. (Visit Nigeria) and find the real story for yourself. Things have changed.”
There is difference between the perception and reality of security in Nigeria. However, the event organizers have taken additional security steps to put the minds of travelers at ease.

中国-尼日利亚 (南南伙伴关系) 中国已成为非洲最大的贸易伙伴,并极大地扩大了与非洲大陆的经济联系。
尼日利亚是非洲最大的经济体,人口最多,也是中国在非洲对外直接投资的首要目的地之一。
聪明的商务人士了解趋势。随着非洲的发展趋势,总部位于上海的非洲咨询公司Afriscaper与本土公司简择咨询Zen Group和专业商旅公司Vtrip合作,组织了为期10天的尼日利亚商业和投资之旅。
重要的是为自己看清事物 没有什么能代替你亲自去看地面的东西。
马云最近第一次访问非洲大陆, 并对几件事感到惊喜。例如, 他说, 他很惊讶互联网的速度几乎是许多发达经济体的两倍, 也是企业家的才干。在访问之后, 他宣布他正在考虑在非洲大陆投资。
关于商务与投资之旅 马云最近首次访问了非洲大陆,对几件事感到惊喜。例如,他说,他惊讶地发现,互联网的发展速度几乎是发达经济体的两倍,还有企业家的素质。他访问后宣布,他正在考虑在这个大陆投资。
他这次访问的信息是,对于你自己来说访问和实地考察是不可替代的。
此次商务与投资之旅将以访问阿布贾(尼日利亚首府)和拉各斯(尼日利亚的商业中心)为特色。在商旅期间,讨论将安排:
• 尼日利亚高级政府官员
• 中国企业主在尼日利亚
• C级尼日利亚企业主
• 商会
• 中国驻阿布贾大使馆和领事馆在拉各斯
• 拉各斯证券交易所
为什么选择尼日利亚? 尼日利亚是一个中等收入,混合经济和新兴市场,随着制造业,金融业,服务业,通讯业,科技和娱乐业的增长。在名义GDP方面,它是世界第二十一大经济体,在购买力平价方面排名第二十。
它是非洲最大的经济体; 其再生制造业在2013年成为非洲大陆最大的制造业,为西非次大陆提供了大部分的商品和服务。根据名义GDP(2016年)计算,尼日利亚的GDP规模为4,930亿美元,由于全球油价下滑,从2014年的高点5740亿美元缩水。就购买力平价(PPP)而言,尼日利亚的国内生产总值为1.1万亿美元。
由于国家的高增长潜力,尼日利亚被视为薄荷国家(MINT)。 薄荷国家(MINT)是指墨西哥,印度尼西亚,尼日利亚和土耳其的经济体的缩写。这个词最初是由总部位于波士顿的资产管理公司美国富达投资公司(Fidelity Investments)创造的,并由高盛(Goldman Sachs)的吉姆•奥尼尔(Jim O'Neill)推动,后者创建了金砖四国(巴西,俄罗斯,印度和中国)。
据美国政府称,到2030年,尼日利亚预计将成为世界十五大经济体之一;到2050年,尼日利亚预计将成为世界十大经济体之一。尼日利亚在GDP和Consumption两项关键指标增长上都表现突出。许多经济分析家预计,尼日利亚将更快实现预测。
安全 许多首次访问尼日利亚的中国游客担心安全问题。事实上,个人安全问题是孤立事件,特别是仅限于毗邻乍得和尼日尔国家博尔诺州的迈杜古里市Maiduguri。尼日利亚联邦政府已经将这些问题限制在一个小范围内,正在努力消除安全威胁。
应该指出的是,迈杜古里从拉各斯乘飞机差不多3个小时,旅行不包括对迈杜古里的访问。
非洲首富尼日利亚的Aliko Dangote是一个净资产达到160亿美元的尼日利亚人,在全国各地都有自己的机构,当被问及安全问题时,建议外国商人和非洲以外的外交官共同努力访问非洲大陆,发现已经发生的变化以纠正一些现有的消极看法。
他说:“不要懒惰。 (访问尼日利亚)为自己找到真实的故事。事情变了。”
尼日利亚的安全感与现实之间存在差异。但是,活动组织者采取了额外的安全措施,让旅客放心。
