Abstract	This collection of papers introduces the proceedings of the fifth Annual Conference--"Eurasian Higher Education Leaders' Forum" held on the 26th May, 2016 at Nazarbayev University in Astana, Kazakhstan. The contributors include university presidents, rectors, deans, directors of professional development and leadership programs, faculty members and graduate students. The compendium offers papers grounded in theoretical argument and empirical research and written to provide debate and discussion among policy makers, university leaders, faculty and students. The theme of this year's Forum is "Higher Education and Modernization of the Economy: Innovative and Entrepreneurial Universities". The conference proceedings discussing issues of innovative and entrepreneurial universities could not have come at a more appropriate time as policy makers, higher education leaders, faculties, practitioners and other stakeholders are discussing different models of higher education institutions with the "entrepreneurial university" becoming a key focus. The contributions in these proceedings include: (1) Preface (Kairat Kurakbayev and Aida Sagintayeva); (2) Fostering Innovation and Entrepreneurship: the TAU Model (Joseph Klafter); (3) Entrepreneurial Ecosystem at Universities: Formation and Development (Assylbek Kozhakhmetov, Nina Nikiforova and Sholpan Maralbayeva); (4) Internationalizing Curriculum for Innovation: Opportunities and Challenges for Entrepreneurial Universities in Kazakhstan (Sholpan Tazabek); (5) MOOCs and their Implications for Traditional Higher Education Institutions (Abay Zhussupbekov); (6) Linking Research to Kazakhstan's Strategic Priorities: The Case of International Faculty at Nazarbayev University (Aliya Kuzhabekova, Jack Lee and Magzhan Amangazy); (7) Entrepreneurial Universities in the Formation of National Intellectual and Social Capital (Marat Ibatov, Valeriy Biryukov, Gulnar Zhaxybayeva and Gulnaz Mussina); (8) The Institutional Middle-Income Trap (Dennis de Tray). We invite everyone who is interested in reflecting on the continuities and changes in higher education development and taking strategic actions to improve their national and local educational environments. Individual papers contain figures and references. [This publication was produced by Nazarbayev University Graduate School of Education. For the 2015 proceedings, see ED565443.] (As Provided).
