Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and Selamat Sejahtera.<br />
First and foremost, I would like to warmly welcome all of you to the Intervarsity<br />
Corporate Strategy Challenge (<strong>ICSC</strong>) <strong>2019</strong>! It is my great pleasure to see all the youngsters<br />
here are ready to gain new experiences and knowledge in a healthy rivalry.<br />
Intervarsity Corporate Strategy Challenge (<strong>ICSC</strong>) <strong>2019</strong> is an event that can enhance<br />
the network between the corporate world and university undergraduates, allow participants to<br />
gain a variety of skills and prepare undergraduates for the corporate world. I believed that this<br />
event can mould all of the undergraduates into successful entrepreneurs in the future and spot<br />
out potential corporate leaders that can contribute ingenious ideas to the society at whole.<br />
Learning is a lifelong process that never ended. Through Intervarsity Corporate<br />
Strategy Challenge(<strong>ICSC</strong>) <strong>2019</strong>, I believe participants will not only learn something new but<br />
also learn how to work effectively on a team because every member in a team need to know their<br />
roles to analyse situations that arise, diagnose the problem, and propose solutions that help<br />
the collective team work more effectively towards reaching their goals. Besides, insights by<br />
invited panels and speakers who are experts in specific fields of the corporate world can help<br />
to develop undergraduates into a better thinker and knowledgeable person.<br />
Furthermore, I would like to thank all of the professional bodies, corporate companies<br />
and sponsors for their contributions’ that provide an opportunity for our undergraduates to<br />
make this event a reality. Lastly, I would like to appreciate the efforts of organising committee<br />
