Embracing Entrepreneurship for Education 4.0 A need exists for renewed thinking on how enterprise and entrepreneurship can support sustainable economic growth in South East Asia. The aim of this rst SEAITE Symposium is to address this key challenge: how might entrepreneurship educaƟon support socio-economic development in the 4.0 era? Enterprise and entrepreneurship are prominent in the educaƟon strategies of many governments, with the aim of producing graduates with the skills needed to engage with the workplaces of the future, either as employees or employers. If 4.0 heralds a new era of connecƟvity between computers and ’things’ then we must also consider the ways in which it will might impact upon the design and delivery of educaƟon; not just the content of educaƟon but also how educaƟon may be experienced in the 4.0 world. The Symposium takes an open entrepreneurial laboratory approach. Through a combinaƟon of expert input and free and open debate, it aims to create contextualized, cuƫng edge, high impact and aordable transformaƟonal soluƟons for the delivery of entrepreneurship educaƟon 4.0 in South East Asia. —————————————————————————————————— Date : 8 - 9 October 2018 (Monday - Tuesday) Venue: 6th Floor, TAR UC Business Incubation Center, SA Block, TAR University College Kuala Lumpur.

PROGRAM Why a Symposium? In  keeping with  the  ethos  of  SEAITE,  the  aim  of  the  Symposium  is  to  engage  as many  people as possible  in  the discussion. The event has been  structured  to allow  for expert input on a range of broad areas, followed by an equal period of discussion on the topics presented and any other that emerge during the conversa ons.  Who should attend? The event might appeal in the first instance to academics and academic leaders interested in  how  4.0 might  impact  upon  the  nature,  scope  and  content  of  educa on  program.  Entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurial mindset are relevant to all disciplines—not just business schools as is some mes presumed. Outside of academia, policymakers, business leaders  (public  sector  and  private),  social  entrepreneurs,  investors  and  philanthropists may all have an interest and a contribu on to make to the discussion.  What is a Design Thinking Methodology? Design thinking  is a human-centered approach to  innova on.  It  is a process that aims to integrate  the  needs  of  people,  with  what  is  technologically  feasible  and  economically  viable. It is also described as a solu ons based approach to solving complex problems. 

The event has been structured around three main themes and as we move from theme to theme, the aim is to focus more on the main issues that emerge. The process will broadly  follow the five main stages of the design thinking process: empathize, define, idea, proto-type and test. It is fun and a li le messy, but its effec ve.
