The Miners Association of Nigeria (MAN), organiser of Nigeria Mining Week, and the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) have signed a Strategic Partnership Agreement aimed at deepening collaboration between Nigeria's mining industry and the organised private sector ahead of Nigeria Mining Week 2026, taking place from 12–14 October 2026 at the Abuja Continental Hotel in Abuja.

The partnership marks an important step towards strengthening engagement among Nigeria's business community, policymakers, investors and mining stakeholders as the country works to unlock the economic potential of its mineral resources sector. Through the agreement, NACCIMA will serve as a Strategic Partner of Nigeria Mining Week and leverage its national network of chambers and business associations to encourage strong private sector participation.

A central component of the collaboration will see NACCIMA rally its members from across Nigeria to participate in Nigeria Mining Week and coordinate a dedicated NACCIMA Pavilion. The pavilion will provide member companies with a platform to showcase their businesses, products, services, projects and innovations, while connecting with mining industry decision-makers, government representatives, investors and prospective partners.

The partnership will also support wider business participation in discussions on mining-sector development, investment promotion, value-chain opportunities and economic diversification. NACCIMA will promote Nigeria Mining Week through its communication channels and affiliated chamber network, broadening engagement between the mining industry and Nigeria's organised private sector.
