More than 3,000 leaders, business owners, executives, and up-and-coming changemakers will come together for the SHIFT Conference Lagos 2026 on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the Eko Convention Center in Victoria Island, Lagos.
It is anticipated that the conference, which is organized by internationally recognized leadership specialist Dr. Sam Adeyemi, would provide a full day of education, strategy, and leadership development.
Currently regarded as one of Nigeria’s most important leadership and business events, SHIFT has developed into a platform devoted to giving people and organizations the attitude, resources, and frameworks needed to manage expansion, scale impact, and propel national change.
Leaders from many industries gather for each edition to discuss the shifting needs of leadership in a world that is changing quickly.
With the subject “Making BIG SHIFTS,” the 2026 conference challenges attendees to go beyond individual achievement and focus on developing individuals, organizations, and systems that have a long-lasting influence.
In her pre-event remarks, Dr. Adeyemi emphasized the importance of intentional leadership in the modern world, pointing out that achievement on its own is no longer enough and that leaders need to think about who they are raising, what they are creating, and how they are helping others. According to him, SHIFT is a platform that helps leaders make that shift.
The conference will include high-impact keynote addresses, discussions at the founder and CEO levels, VIP leadership interactions, and opportunities for strategic industry networking.
The experience has been thoughtfully chosen, according to the organizers, to offer useful insights and doable tactics for long-term progress.
The chairman of Cavista Holdings and founder and CEO of Axxess, John Olajide, is one of the confirmed speakers. Olajide’s contributions to healthcare, technology, and economic development on several continents have earned him widespread recognition.
With a focus on leadership development and scalable growth techniques, SHIFT Lagos 2026 is designed for CEOs, founders, business executives, professionals, and future leaders. The conference’s dedication to social impact extends beyond its main sessions, as it supports programs for educational access and youth involvement that are meant to cultivate Nigeria’s future generation of leaders.
Registration is now open, and there are only a few seats left in the VIP, Founder, and general admission categories. Visit www.shift-conference.com for registration information and more details.
