DOWNLOAD CALL FOR PAPERS BROCHURE

The drive toward business sustainability for the generations of today and tomorrow is important and can be achieved in large part through innovation. Rising consumption of energy and resources associated with the ever-growing global population, particularly in developing countries, have reinforced the dangers of climate change, and have contributed to the soaring cost of oil dependency, water shortages, loss of biodiversity, and social destabilisation. In line with this, The 3rd International Conference on Business Sustainability and Innovation (ICBSI 2022) provides a much-needed platform for contemporary management researchers and practitioners to address these realities in the current digital era. The conference’s mission is to integrate sustainability and innovation and draw on empirical and professional insights for more impactful solutions. The event offers a unique opportunity for business leaders, researchers, academics and practitioners worldwide to collaborate, exchange ideas, and share their views and concerns on the pressing issues of sustainability and innovation.

AGEING WELL FESTIVAL 2022
2022-10-15 07:15 - 18:00
Older people bring to our lives a day set aside to honour them reminds us to take the time to be kind and humble in the presence of a long life well-lived. In Asian culture, families take good care of their elders, but unfortunately, there are people who treat older people as liabilities making them feel neglected. Besides, the new generation is becoming more materialistic and has lost patience toward the ageing population. In conjunction with International Day of Older Persons, Graduate School of Business (GSB) and Bagan Specialist Centre would like to take this opportunity to contribute to our neighbourhood by spreading awareness and caring for society through our Ageing Well Festival.

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS CASE COMPETITION 2021
2021-12-02 09:00 - 16:00
Announcement: The IBCC 2021 case has been sent to all team leaders’ registered email addresses.

As Malaysia grapples with the massive economic disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, more and more businesses are going digital in order to stay afloat.
Among the most prominent digital platforms is of course online food delivery services, which have flourished and become a major part of contemporary life for many Malaysians. When the first Movement Control Order (MCO) was implemented in March 2020, online food delivery companies were instrumental in sustaining what was left of any economic activity. In the intervening months, many companies in the F&B sector have subscribed to these platforms, with some even introducing their own online delivery options. Sooner or later, this will likely lead to a saturated market, requiring business owners to adapt to the changing needs of their customers
This competition is intended to be a platform that offers university students a unique opportunity to propose innovative solutions to address the issues of doing business during, and perhaps long after, the Covid-19 Pandemic, particularly as the Industry 4.0 environment takes hold.

Reasons to join:

You will have the opportunity to use your competencies to develop creative and innovative solutions for the case.
You will hone valuable skills such as team work, problem solving and applying theory to real-life
You will have the opportunity to pitch your ideas in front of a panel of distinguished judges and to get noticed by others.
You will encounter and learn from students from all over Malaysia and abroad.

Eligibility:

Open to all undergraduate and postgraduate university students.
Teams must comprise 3 members, all of whom are current university students
Registration fees: RM50 per team (local) and USD20 per team (international)
All teams must be registered by 11:59 pm (Malaysia time) on 10th October, 2021
Each team will analyse, evaluate and offer solutions to the same case scenario
Finalists will have to participate in real-time virtual pitching.

Awards:
Cash prizes will be awarded to the winning teams. All participants will receive certificates of participation.
