Knowledge as an intellectual capital has become an important asset to any nation nowadays. As knowledge is a valuable resource that allows the nation to function intelligently, they are constantly encouraged to use the brainpower to complement the rapid development of Information Technology (IT) which is a vital tool for generating and managing knowledge.
Realizing its importance, Knowledge Management International Conference (KMICe) will once again provide a platform for international presentation of research findings as well as discussions and sharing of recent advances in the field. This conference will bring together leading researchers and developers in a wide variety of areas, with a common interest in improving the state of the art of knowledge management (KM). This conference will also bring together people from the academia and industry to establish closer cooperation and ties, and creation of K-based society.
As a management university, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) has initiated the platform in organizing a conference of this nature. KM has been accepted as a major driving force that drives the global economy. K-economy is at the paramount of the global discussion and most of nation leaders including this region are pushing this knowledge-based economy so they do not left behind.
Regions within the Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle (IMT-GT) should take this opportunity to learn and be better equipped so that KM can be implemented to promote a win-win situation among the participating countries with respect to economic growth.
