Later that month (Nov 2017), Jenk was the closing speaker at the Oxford Global: Model United Nations Conference at Oxford University and returned again in November 2018 as the assistant to the MUN Secretary General.

Oz has been involved in several speaking engagements. In July 2017, he spoke at the TEDx Youth event in Harlow, Essex. The talk was entitled Ideas Ink, and referred to writing ideas down on paper and treating ideas like a company from day 1.

In September 2018, Oz spoke as part of a select group of young entrepreneurs offering expert top tips and advice on how to start a business at a young age. Also in September 2018, Jenk spoke at both the Maximum Achievement 2.0 conference and the Oppidum Education Conference about using social media in a positive and productive way for both business and personal use.

In September 2018, Oz spoke at Retail Week’s annual Tech festival. Jenk sat on a panel of ‘the next generation of tech leaders’ discussing how their business ideas grew from conception to reality, and what today’s businesses must do to stay competitive in the retail space. Jenk’s passion for inspiring other young people to pursue entrepreneurship was evident in his role at the 2018 Kidzania Kidpreneur festival.

In May 2018, he spoke at the Amazon AWS Summit London where he encouraged youth to use Influencers and Champions from around the world in the absence of a local support system for idea development. He also spoke at KidTECH 2018, an industry event focused on strategies relating to the build, rollout, scaling and marketing of businesses aimed at Generation Z.

Oz created iCoolKid to be an all-inclusive publishing, media, consulting and production home for ‘Generation Z’, covering seven different topical channels. Jenk and iCoolKid are consulted regularly on Gen Z trends, purchasing habits, marketing strategies, top tips and advice for other young entrepreneurs.

Oz first expressed an interest in becoming an entrepreneur at the age of just eight years old, when he presented the original idea for iCoolKid Ltd. at a ‘Show and Tell’ presentation held during assembly. From here the concept of iCoolKid was born – a digital platform aimed at Generation Z which disseminates trend-led content to inspire and encourage young people to pursue their passions and try new things.

In addition to his work on iCoolKid Ltd., Oz has trained at The Juilliard School, Sylvia Young Theatre School, National Youth Musical Theatre, Young Actor’s Theatre and the Royal Academy of Dance as an actor, musician, singer, dancer, model and presenter.

The event was hosted by NACUE, a not for profit organisation supporting the development of enterprise and entrepreneurship at colleges and universities across the UK and Europe.

In March 2019, Oz was interviewed by business publication Forbes on how businesses can market to Gen Z, and commented on how businesses can use each social channel differently: ““To reach Gen Z, it’s important for retailers to pay attention to their social presence, and consider how to build each channel. Each platform appeals to different followers and will attract different age groups, so perfecting the right tone is imperative.”
