As Namibia’s lead investment promotion agency, the Namibia Investment Promotion and Development Board (NIPDB) is committed to creating a simple and transparent business environment, built on the foundation of peace, stability and rule of law.

The NIPDB commenced operations in January 2021, taking over the functions of our predecessor, the Namibia Investment Centre (under the Ministry of Industrialisation and Trade) to become the lead investment agency for Namibia. Located strategically in the Office of the President, the NIPDB serves as the first point of call for potential investors wanting to do business in Namibia. Our aim is to make Namibia the investment destination of choice by improving Namibia's competitiveness and ease of doing business, starting with eliminating red tape and driving policy reforms.

The NIPDB is responsible for investment promotion and development of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) across the country.

​

Our focus lies in identifying, executing, and relaying critical legal and policy reforms, alongside suitable incentives, to establish a favourable business ecosystem and foster trust-based relationships with our investors.
