活动简介

ASCENT is an annual international conference organized by FTMS College, with a humble beginning in 2013 and is now entering its fourth year. In essence, it is organized as an effort to provide a platform and a forum for academicians and practitioners to discuss and present their works and research findings on extant issues and future trends related to business, IT and education. Papers presented were published in Conference Proceedings and selected papers were submitted for publications in academic journals. This conference is supported by the Ministry of Higher Education, Malaysia and the Malaysia Convention and Exhibition Bureau, Ministry of Tourism, Malaysia.

ASCENT 2016 is the continuation of these efforts and to celebrate the commitments shown by 200 countries to contain global warming, we choose Innovating to Build a Sustainable World as the theme for the conference. As such, ASCENT 2016 invites scholars and practitioners to contribute ideas and research findings that address the impacts of business, IT and education on global warming and vice versa.

Notwithstanding, crucial though it is, global warming is far from being the only sustainability challenge. Depleted global resources, population growth, an aging population, pandemic risks, super bugs, global terrorism, and friction between nations and between ethnic and other groups are amongst other threats to global sustainability - often not unrelated to climate change. Hence, ASCENT 2016 welcomes submissions from other disciplines that will provide insights from scholarship and research that business, I.T. and education can make to contain these wider sustainability risks.
