Mr. Michael Teoh, Co-Founder of Youth Entrepreneurs Malaysia (YEM)


It's our great pleasure again to get to invite another great speaker to MASC 2010. 

Mr. Micheal Teoh will be our speaker for the topic The Role of Youth in Malaysia's Economy.


Let us brief you something about Mr. Michael Teoh:
 
Michael Teoh is a Youth Advocate in Malaysia, consulting government agencies, companies and NGOs on engaging and developing the youth segment. He is currently the Head for Outreach Program at myHarapan, a youth foundation established to support, facilitate and grow youths and their initiatives to create positive impact to the community.

He was the Co-Founder of Youth Entrepreneurs Malaysia (YEM), a social start-up enterprise involved in the business of building communities and becoming a Youth-centric media platform for entrepreneurship. To date, he has connected with more than 10,000 youths across 100 community and entrepreneurship projects in universities and colleges, since last year while pursuing YEM.

He is a multiple time global business competition champion during his university days overseas, where he represented New Zealand to competitions and conferences in New York, Singapore, Hong Kong and more. He was also an active student leader in global youth organizations like SIFE, AIESEC, the Microsoft Imagine Cup and Student Council.  He has also consulted companies like Citigroup and Ocean Park, both in Hong Kong, Start-Ups and Incubators in New Zealand and micro-businesses in tourism and youth development in Malaysia. 

After his graduation in 2008, he was invited to speak at the Harvard Business Conference and was also one of the seven of Malaysia’s Most Outstanding Youth awarded by the Asian Youth Ambassadors.
In 2009, Michael was nominated to the Asia-Pacific Future Young Social Entrepreneurs Top 100 List and the Asia Leaders21 Group, both representing Malaysia. Recently he was even offered to pursue a project with leading MBA School – INSEAD on Social Entrepreneurship. At the same year, he too was recognized as the Youth Catalyst for the Global Entrepreneurship Week project, a project spread across 102 countries around the world.

On the media front, Michael has won the Tune Talk Chief Talker Awards for ‘Youth Empowerment’, the Honda – Our Challenging Spirit Awards for ‘Passion in Entrepreneurship’ and the Live & Inspire – Youth Rocks Awards for Malaysian Role-Model, notable for his influence and crowd-sourcing abilities on the web communities.

Sharing knowledge and showcasing local youth talents have always been his passion, hence his feature as a regular speaker on youth development and entrepreneurship at universities and colleges across the region.  To date he has spoken in more than 100 occasions in universities like UiTM, UM, UUM, USM, Unirazak, UTAR, Lim Kok Wing University and more. On the business side, he was a speaker in MSC Innotech-Penang, the GoMobile Conference, the SIFE National Business Competition and many more.
In 2010, Michael excelled on a different notch as he was voted by Malaysian youths to represent the Voices of Young Malaysians to One Young World, a global youth summit held in London, where he addressed 1,000 youths across 192 countries and millions watching from BBC World News and YouTube on how ‘Youths are Mobilizing Change through Social Media’, a speech which landed him interviews with CNN News, BBC World News and Reuters. Interestingly as well, Michael had managed to unite 36,000 Malaysian youths’ ideas into a book within one week, as a ‘Gift’ from Malaysia to the 192 countries’ leader during the summit. 

Michael had just returned from a program sponsored by leading MBA School – INSEAD in Singapore, where he pursued a short course program in Entrepreneurship Development and was invited to Stanford University to deliver his speech on the Malaysian Entrepreneurial Landscape in the USA.



Incredibly, Mr Michael Teoh will be with us in MASC 2010!
