In the 20th century ago, the world is facing with human tragedies such as wars, calamities and natural disasters. Those tragedies happened because of human being are far away from their true nature of humanity, injustice and lack of governance in managing the world created by Allah the Almighty. Mankind have no longer play their roles as the God’s servants, on the contrary act as the creators and are doing everything according to their own free will. Eventually, this phenomenon has led to prejudice and enmity among themselves and has caused the world civilization today become more mundane and cannibalistic. At the beginning of the 21st century, such phenomenon still persists and seems to be never ending and having no proper solution.
The discussion of ideas concerning intellectual institution or leaders and scholars in the context of empowering Islamic civilization is vital in these days.This is consistent with the saying of the Holy Prophet peace be upon him that means: “there are two groups of human beings when both of them are good, indeed, all mankind will be good, but when both are bad, consequentlythe whole mankind will be desructive. They are namely ulama’ (scholars) and umara’ (leaders) “(HR. Abu Nu’aim). Therefore, the agenda of Islamic solidarity should be achieved in this contemporary society. It should become the starting point of complementary interrelationship and collaborative efforts of these two significant institutions; ulama’ and umara’.
In this regard, the Research Institute for Islamic Products and Malay Civilization (INSPIRE) in collaboration with Research Management, Innovation & Commercialization Centre (RMIC) are planning to carry out this international conference.

The recent 2015 report by the United Nations predicted that by 2050, the world population will grow to 9.7 billion, wherein half of them reside in Asia (54.1 percent), an estimated growth of 19.9 percent from 2015. Social changes and economic shifts in Asia, coupled with recent financial crises, pose significant challenges to sustainable development and business practices in Asia and around the globe. While there are urgency on developing, planning and implementing sustainable strategies to enable and ensure productivity and viability of businesses, new opportunities are also opening up, requiring innovative strategies at all levels to ensure productivity of workers and successful business practices.
Business practices that seize new opportunities with innovations pose a great challenge for Asian firms in the 21st century. The potential growth of the region calls for close collaboration between universities, research institutes and government agencies for the advancement of new knowledge on sustainable business practices as well as on required institutional changes. Social changes accompanying the economic growth and the expansion of the financial market raise new concerns that need to be addressed at the same time. With an unprecedented new horizon opening up for the future of Asia, this conference calls for in-depth discussion to identify new sources of opportunities, by exploring new strategies that enable changes, enhance sustainable growth and meet rising challenges facing firms in Asia.
