New ideas, cultural change, meaningful dialogue, and the power of bringing the right people together. I believe innovation often happens at the intersection of disciplines — when business, creativity, technology, and society are allowed to truly meet.

I’m deeply passionate about supporting social entrepreneurs, especially those whose work often goes unseen despite driving powerful change in their communities. Through my work at the Elevate Prize Foundation, I help accelerate impact by providing these leaders with unrestricted funding and, just as importantly, by amplifying their stories and platforms. We believe that visibility is a form of power: when we elevate the voices and work of these changemakers on a global stage, we not only expand their reach and influence but also inspire others to join the movement.

I strongly believe that being passionate about something means you are really into it and trying to do something about it in future.Being passionate about some issue is driven by the desire to learn, explore new ideas and conquer the horizons. On the creative front, I would like to call myself an Avid reader. From childhood, I'm fond of english Literature where Julian Barnes and J.M.Coetzee are my favorite ones.

Adetayo seeks to build labor justice, provide sustainable living wages, and fight unemployment throughout Africa by enabling commercial drivers to finance their own motorcycles, tuk-tuks and cars.

I am passionate about people, ideas, and the possibilities that emerge when people are given the opportunity to think beyond what already exists. I am passionate about aviation and aerospace because they represent humanity's desire to explore, innovate, and go beyond the limits we once considered impossible. As a Meteorology student at the African Aviation and Aerospace University, I am particularly interested in how science, technology, climate, and aviation intersect to shape the future. I am passionate about young people and their potential. I believe young people should not simply be viewed as beneficiaries of opportunities, but as creators, innovators, leaders, and problem solvers. Through my work with youth initiatives and education focused organizations, I have seen how exposure to the right idea, person, or opportunity can completely change the way a young person sees their future. I am passionate about education and access to knowledge because I believe knowledge becomes most powerful when it is shared. This is one reason I have pursued opportunities that allow me to contribute to youth education, literacy, and development. I am also deeply passionate about climate action and environmental sustainability. Through EcoRise Youth Initiative, which I founded, I have worked to engage young people in conversations around climate change and environmental responsibility. My background in Meteorology has strengthened my desire to understand environmental challenges and contribute to solutions that make communities more resilient. I am passionate about innovation and technology, particularly how emerging technologies can solve real problems and create opportunities for people who have traditionally been left behind. I enjoy exploring areas such as web development, digital media, and new technologies because they demonstrate how creativity and technical knowledge can come together to create impact. I am passionate about communication and storytelling. Through photography, graphic design, public speaking, social media, and content creation, I have learned that even a powerful idea can remain invisible if it is not communicated effectively. I enjoy finding ways to turn complex ideas and experiences into stories that people can understand, remember, and act upon. I am passionate about leadership and community building. I believe leadership is not simply about holding a title; it is about creating opportunities for other people to contribute, grow, and discover their own potential. I enjoy bringing people together around a shared vision and building teams that can turn ambitious ideas into reality. Ultimately, I am passionate about the future and about ensuring that young people, particularly young Africans, have a meaningful role in shaping it. This is what draws me to TEDx. I believe that behind every major change is an idea, and behind many of those ideas is someone who was willing to ask, "What if?" I want to help create spaces where people can ask that question freely, where different perspectives can meet, and where ideas can travel beyond the room in which they were first shared. That is the spirit I hope to bring to TEDxAAAU.

books. and maybe you.
