Nigeria’s National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), in collaboration with the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), has launched the Nigeria Tech Outlook Report to strengthen data-driven policymaking and support the country’s digital economy.
The report was unveiled during the Digital Nigeria International Conference and Exhibition 2026 in Abuja. The initiative aims to improve access to credible data and evidence-based insights into Nigeria’s evolving technology sector.
The report is expected to provide a clearer understanding of the country’s technology ecosystem, helping policymakers identify opportunities, assess industry progress and develop strategies to support innovation and investment.
By providing reliable sector data, the initiative is also expected to support efforts to attract investment, inform policy development and strengthen Nigeria’s position in the global digital economy.
The launch comes as Nigeria continues to advance its digital transformation agenda under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. Access to accurate and relevant technology-sector information is considered important for measuring progress and identifying areas that require further development.
NITDA said the unveiling at the Digital Nigeria International Conference 2026 reflects the Federal Government’s commitment to building a technology ecosystem guided by innovation, collaboration, measurable outcomes and informed policymaking.
Through its collaboration with the NBS, the agency aims to strengthen the evidence base available to stakeholders working to shape Nigeria’s digital future.
