Firstly, we would like to welcome everyone to the prestigious 11th conference on the theme “ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND<br />
SUSTAINABILITY: FROM LI<strong>FE</strong> STYLES TO INNOVATIVE ENTERPRISES IN CREATIVE AND SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENTS”<br />

Research, Essex Business School, University Of Essex, United Kingdom, in collaboration with the Organization for<br />
Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) UK and Local Economic and Employment Development (LEED) Paris,<br />
France.<br />
During the past 10 years IEF has organised highly successful, refereed international conferences in different countries<br />
of Europe, Asia and the Middle East covering various aspects of entrepreneurship, innovation and economic development.<br />
One of the most satisfying outcomes of all the events has been the identification of new interest, scholarship and<br />
insight into entrepreneurial activity, across different countries, demonstrating the value of learning in an international<br />
arena of thought and practice. This outcome informs the themes and topics chosen for each conference.<br />
The IEF continues to work closely with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and its<br />
Local Employment and Economic Development (LEED) Programme<br />
We hope you will join us in this ‘flow’ of your ideas and insights, and engage in the debates and deliberations, in the<br />
creative crucible of emergent Asia and in the centre of innovative Malaysia.<br />

THE <strong>CON<strong>FE</strong>RENCE</strong><br />
The conference theme covers a range of highly topical issues that relates to the creative aspects of new<br />
opportunity recognition and sustainable growth for enterprises, the economy and society through innovation, technology,<br />
collaborative business models, networks and organizational change which issues that are preoccupying the minds of<br />
the entrepreneurs, policy makers, and researchers as attempts are being made to find new directions in the way we<br />
create value driven and entrepreneurial firms and societies<br />
In attempting to answer some of the questions above our objective is to provide a platform for researchers, policy<br />
makers and practitioners to both showcase and grapple with the increasing flow of ideas, resources and knowledge<br />
between businesses, institutions and policy makers. The particular role of entrepreneurship in transforming society<br />
through greater and meaningful economic opportunity is to be found in these flows and in the mix of these assets. IEF<br />
conferences are different from many. The sessions are organized to enable such discourse and debate.<br />
