Description
Summary:This paper places both the concepts of High Impact Entrepreneurship and Sustainability-as-Flourishing along with the case of Malaysia’s Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) Project—a national agenda mission per se—under the microscopic lens. In doing so, a series of interviews were conducted, mainly to selected developers and stakeholders of OTEC Malaysia. We illumine how OTEC Malaysia fits to become a high impact entrepreneurship assignment, and underline how the project would contribute to Sustainability-as-Flourishing in the long run. Our paper firstly introduces what high impact entrepreneurship is all about, followed by an overview of sustainability-as-flourishing as a trending concept in business and environmental researches. We then approach the OTEC model and argue how it fits both the notion of high impact entrepreneurship and sustainability-as-flourishing. Our paper concludes by affirming the potential of OTEC Malaysia and its promise of a novel hope to Malaysians, and her neighbouring nations as well.
