11 July 2021 – The organizer strategic partnership team envisions COPE-BEST to be a signature annual event under IGEM that will position Malaysia as an ASEAN hub for synergizing energy sustainability best practices and innovation. Here, the global network and experiences of the organiser in leading R&D in energy sustainability shall be a defining edge. In particular, their prominent involvement as part of the global R&D community of practice on Process Integration, Modelling and Optimisation for Energy Saving and Pollution Reduction (PRES) conference that has been established for 23 years, with members from over 60 countries, will be instrumental.

- It engages universities/research institutions with good research track records and commercialisation experiences in the effort to foster industry-university partnership.
- COPE-BEST includes energy sustainability video challenge to nurture young talents as future energy leaders and enculture sustainability in the younger generations.
