Dear Participants,

I am very glad to present my appreciation for your participation in the Eighteenth International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management (ICMSEM 2024) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management is well-known in the world and the Eighteenth Conference organized by International Society of Management Science and Engineering Management together with Sichuan University and Universiti Malaya, Malaysia, aims at fostering international research collaborations in Management Science and Engineering Management.

The conference provides a good chance for all participants to discuss and to exchange their research ideas during its well organized post-conference tours. Although the research ideas will be presented in technical sessions and round table discussions during the conference period, the sightseeing will provide extra occasions for the participants to have an in-depth discussion in a relaxed environment.

I am very grateful for the help and support from the institutions as well as the hard work from many individuals who have contributed greatly to this conference. Please let me extend my gratitude to them. I hope all the participants will enjoy attending all technical sessions of the conference, meeting friends and colleagues as well as joining its wonderful post-conference tours.
