Objectives of ICMSC 2024
1
To create a platform for global partnership by bringing together a diverse group of individuals, including students, academicians, scientists, professionals, practitioners and various stakeholders for promoting sustainable development.
2
To achieve the various SDGs through a detailed evaluation and analysis of the current trends, advancements, and new developments across different countries.
3
To encourage collaboration between industry and academia, thereby bridging the gap between theory and practice.
4
To provide opportunities for publication of original research papers, review papers, surveys, case studies, technical and management reports, viewpoints in the conference publications.
