Smart Infrastructure, Smart Economy: Building Future-Ready Systems for Nigeria

At Triple Helix Nigeria (THN), we are committed to advancing conversations that shape the future of innovation, infrastructure, and economic transformation.

In this edition, we engage Mr. Chidume Uzozie, a seasoned corporate business development expert with extensive experience delivering multi-million-dollar infrastructure and energy projects across Nigeria.

Currently an Executive at VFD Group, where he leads Investment Management, Investor Relations, Treasury, and the Group’s Energy and Power initiatives, Mr. Uzozie brings deep cross-sector expertise spanning infrastructure, oil & gas, power, and natural resources. His previous leadership roles within the Honeywell Group and advisory experience at KPMG position him uniquely at the intersection of strategy, execution, and economic transformation.

Drawing from this rich experience, he shares practical insights into how Nigeria can unlock productivity, competitiveness, and inclusive growth through smart infrastructure.

This conversation aligns with THN’s bold Vision 10:10:10:10, which seeks to drive innovation and economic value through stronger collaboration among government, industry, and academia.
