A luxury real estate development firm, 7-Fifteen Capital Limited, has reaffirmed its long-term dedication to Lagos State, pledging to add significant value to its future development landscape.
The Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the firm headquartered in Abuja, Tope Adekoya, stated this over the weekend during the unveiling of its Lagos office in the Ikoyi area of the state, describing the move as a significant step in the company’s expansion into Nigeria’s most dynamic real estate market.
According to a statement obtained by The PUNCH on Sunday, the evening opened with an art exhibition by Yenwa Gallery titled Load-Bearing, featuring five sculptural works commissioned by 7-Fifteen Capital.
The statement added that the exhibition showcased visual interpretations of the company’s developments and architectural journey, including its Lagos project, Zuri Residences on George Street, Ikoyi, which is already underway.
“The showcase offered guests an immersive introduction to the brand’s design philosophy and vision for premium living, using art as the lens through which 7-Fifteen Capital introduced its work and ambitions for Lagos,” the statement read in part.
Speaking on the company’s growth and expansion into Lagos, Adekoya, said, “When we founded 7-Fifteen, our goal was simple: to build refined, intentional spaces that people would be proud to call home.
In Abuja, that vision grew into developments like Myari Lakeside, The Residence, and The Cove Lakeside, projects defined by craftsmanship and a deep respect for the relationship between architecture and everyday living.”
Adekoya added that the company is committed to contributing meaningful value to Lagos State.
“Now, as we enter Lagos, a city driven by energy, ambition, and constant evolution, we do so with the same philosophy and a long-term commitment to contributing meaningful value to its future landscape,” Adekoya said.
In his keynote address, the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, said that the state has continued to grow and has vast potential as a global real estate destination.
He highlighted the important role quality developers play in shaping a city that is not only functional but also aspirational.
Sanwo-Olu formally welcomed the company to Lagos, expressing confidence in its commitment to excellence, delivery, and thoughtful design.
Also speaking, the Deputy CEO and Co-Founder of 7-Fifteen Capital, Adesuwa Belo-Osagie, said, “We are not just building in Lagos; we are building for Lagos. The same care we bring to creating beautiful, lasting homes is the care we want to extend to the communities around them. Through the Foundation, we are investing in people, especially young people, who deserve greater access to opportunity. Good living is not only about the spaces we occupy but also about the lives we can build within them.”
The evening concluded with a networking reception attended by financiers, developers, investors, and business leaders, reflecting the significance of the occasion and the anticipation surrounding the company’s Lagos expansion. As guests engaged with the company’s leadership, developments, and artistic installations, the atmosphere reflected optimism and quiet confidence about what lies ahead. By the end of the evening, the message was clear: Lagos, 7-Fifteen Capital, is here.
The launch ceremony also featured a panel discussion titled From Land to Keys: Fixing the Gaps in Lagos Real Estate Delivery, bringing together industry leaders and practitioners for a conversation on the opportunities and challenges shaping property development in Lagos.
A major highlight of the evening was the formal introduction of the 7-Fifteen Foundation, the company’s social impact arm focused on advancing social welfare and expanding access to opportunity for underserved communities, particularly children and young adults facing barriers to education, employment, training, and basic necessities.
The event attracted an influential gathering of business leaders, investors, and public figures, including Aliko Dangote, Chairman of Dangote Group; Hakeem Belo-Osagie, Chairman of Metis Capital Partners; Atedo Peterside, Founder of Stanbic IBTC and the ANAP Foundation; Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Co-Founder of Access Bank and Coronation Group and Chairman of the Aig-Imoukhuede Foundation; Jumoke Oduwole, Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment; Minister of Education, Dr Maruf Tunji Alausa; and the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, among other distinguished guests.
