What We Do
ICMS focuses on self-actualisation opportunities. We have accounts of great ideas being conceptualised and then implemented as a result of interactions within groups of talented and passionate individuals. ICMS, made up of our global network and international resources, strives to be the ideal incubator for turning enterprising ideas into impactful actions.

ICMS Chapter Events are initiatives based in and executed by the 5 Chapters ICMS operates in. Each event is unique to the Chapter’s specific demands and leverages its network of connections, Partners, Sponsors, and Affiliates. Access to a Chapter Event is by no means limited to a Chapter – all ICMS Associates and the general public are welcomed to engage with ICMS events across Chapters and gain a truly international experience.
FLAGSHIP EVENTS
The ICMS Flagship Events show our commitment to our motto of Building Networks, Empowering Leaders, and Realising Ideas. Annually, they bring aspirational Malaysians from all across the country to equip them with the necessary skills and knowledge to enable actionable impact – collectively building a greater Malaysia via the empowerment of her youth.
Malaysian Public Policy Competition
The Malaysian Public Policy Competition (MPPC) is an annual case-based competition that engages Malaysian students in a comprehensive public policy-making process. This competition is a unique opportunity for participants to understand the importance of conception and implementation of public policies, as well as to tackle common dilemmas in striking the right balance between populist policies and realistic policies. The MPPC gives participants the opportunity to not only engage with renowned experts from the government, private sector and academia but also interact with highly qualified peers who share similarly high levels of passion and curiosity with regards to public policy making. During the residential challenge, participants identify pressing national issues, according to a selected theme, and devise policies to address them. Over the years, MPPC has succeeded in giving Malaysian undergraduates a chance at public policy-making within the real world context.
Industry Insights
Industry Insights (I²) aims to bring key personnel from reputable companies of various industries to provide ambitious and career-motivated students, from institutions both local and abroad, an insight into the various industries in Malaysia. Since 2013, ICMS has successfully carried out Industry Insights as an annual flagship event; with milestones being achieved annually while adapting to include the latest challenges of our era. I² does not only aspire to give students an opportunity to acquire knowledge and experience beyond their own fields of study, but is also a platform for students to showcase critical thinking and presentation skills. In turn, this is also a chance for them to put up their best performance in front of leading firms’ representatives and talent leaders, hence improving their employability.
ICMS ACADEMY
The ICMS Academy (IA), officially revamped under the 9th Council, is an initiative operating under the Operations Committee (OPCO). IA is an important platform for Associate development in ICMS, with the aim of delivering a series of workshops and masterclasses catered to our Associates’ areas of interests in collaboration with our strong Alumni network. Through these sessions, Associates are able to hone their soft skills and equip themselves with industry-specific knowledge based on their interests.
