The African real estate industry is set to take a major leap forward with the Africa Real Estate Entrepreneurship Bootcamp (AREEB) 2026, scheduled to hold in Lagos on May 8th and 9th, 2026.
The two-day event aims to address the pressing issue of lack of clarity and structured learning in the real estate sector, bringing together over 20 speakers from across Africa to share their expertise and experiences.
The event is designed to provide practical frameworks for building profitable real estate enterprises, with sessions tailored to address both foundational and advanced aspects of the business.
According to Convener Dr. Oluwatosin Olatujoye, “We are at a point where interest in real estate is high, but clarity is still missing for many. AREEB is designed to bridge that gap by providing a structured learning environment where participants can gain practical knowledge and understand what it truly takes to build a profitable real estate enterprise.”
The bootcamp will cover key areas such as market entry, deal structuring, sales strategy, investment positioning, and long-term business sustainability. Participants will also benefit from networking opportunities with industry professionals and entrepreneurs.
“We have carefully designed AREEB to ensure that every participant gets value from start to finish,” said Femi Ajose, Head of Operations.
“From the quality of speakers to the flow of sessions and overall experience, the focus is on delivering a seamless and impactful learning environment.”
Jolayemi James, Head of Communications, Media & Project, emphasised the depth of engagement participants should expect from the two-day experience. “AREEB is not just another industry gathering; it is a learning-driven platform. Every session is designed to address real challenges within the real estate space and provide practical solutions.
Participants will not only learn but also engage, connect, and explore opportunities that can redefine their growth trajectory.
The event is powered by the Tosin Olatujoye Foundation, which is committed to empowering individuals and strengthening the real estate ecosystem through structured learning and capacity development.
AREEB 2026 is expected to attract a diverse mix of real estate practitioners, entrepreneurs, and investors from within Nigeria and across the continent, reinforcing Lagos’ position as a hub for innovation and investment in Africa’s property sector.
Industry observers continue to highlight the importance of platforms like AREEB in fostering collaboration, enhancing knowledge, and promoting sustainable practices across the real estate ecosystem.
Registration for the bootcamp remains open, with interested participants encouraged to secure their slots via the foundation’s website.
