Since 2017 when we held the first Think Large, we have consistently continued the conference in 2018, 2019, and 2020, including Orienta. Conference which held in 2018 and 2019.
​
Think Large Conference (TLC) is an annual conference that aims to inspire creativity and foster business ideas in young adults at University level. Further objectives of the conference include; ensuring networking by providing connection between participants, connecting participants to funding organisations like Bank of Industry (BOI), and providing the right information on starting/growing a business. We don't wait until undergraduates are in their final year, which is why this event is annual such that participants can attend 4 of its kind within a 4-year course duration. Certificates of attendance are issued participants after the event. TLC is usually held in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife Osun State Nigeria.
​
Orienta. Conference, coined from the word 'orientation' was designed to provide the right perspective to secondary level and pre-degree students about tertiary level courses. We discovered many admission aspirants do not have the proper understanding of what many university courses entail, which is why most of them are stereotyped to just few courses. Orienta. Confernce is designed to bridge that gap. The conference is usually collaborated with the Ministry of Education and NABTEB.

ORIENTA.
Conference
The vision of Orienta. Conference is to educate secondary-level teenagers about very lucrative courses at the tertiary level that most do not consider. Especially in this age, it is not only Medicine and Law that are very lucrative courses; if admission aspirants are educated in these areas it will help them make better-informed decisions which will improve their lives in the future.
​
Based on this vision, we have worked with credible partners like the Osun State Ministry of Education and NABTEB Southwest Zone in the past editions of Orienta. Conference.
​
