Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Policy in Indonesia

Abstract

Abstract The role of entrepreneurs strongly influences the economic growth of a country. Every country always encourages entrepreneurship so that it could thrive by creating an entrepreneurship ecosystem. The role of entrepreneurship ecosystem will be optimal if the government can create a policy that is in synergy with the other components of the entrepreneurship ecosystem. The method of research used in this study is a qualitative approach with the literature study method. The data were obtained through books, documents, Internet, and other relevant sources. The data that was obtained then analysed using descriptive analysis method by describing the facts, which are then followed by analysis, not merely outlines, but also provides an understanding and explanation. The results of the research showed that the components of the entrepreneurship ecosystem in Indonesia are working. However, their activities are limited to running their respective programs without a comprehensive design. The government needs to play a more dominant role to optimize and synergize each component of the entrepreneurship ecosystem. One of the institutions or particular ministries should establish a policy so that the program to build the entrepreneurship ecosystem does not overlap with each other.
