Dear Participants,

Welcome to the 7th CYRUS Institute of Knowledge (CIK) International conference in collaboration with the MIT

Sloan Global Programs and the Iranian Studies Group at MIT titled “Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Responsible

Management, and Sustainable Economic Development.” We hope you will enjoy the intellectual discussions and

networking environment the conference provides. The conference is co-sponsored by, Bentley University, New

England college, ESCA Ecole De Management, Morocco, Suffolk University, and UNINOVE University, Brazil.

Thank you for your participation!

CIK is a forward-looking think-tank organization. CIK’s vision, “to cultivate the discourse on human capital

potentials for better living,” is the appropriate response to current challenges facing the regions and world. THE

CYRUS CHRONICLE JOURNAL (CCJ): Contemporary Business Studies on Asia and Africa as CIK’s

flagship publication 4th volume is forthcoming. The journal is focusing on management sciences, economics, and

related social science topics. Given the evolution of globalization and critical importance of the regions, it will be

a great platform for an exchange of ideas for promotion and dissemination of scholarship about regions.

The main objectives of the conference are: 1) Sharing ideas for advancing the intellectual atmosphere by

generating theoretical and applied knowledge in management sciences, and 2) Creating a networking environment

by inviting scholars, practitioners, philanthropists, and others who share the values and mission of CIK. Consider

yourself now as part of our network!
