Research on MSMEs in Indonesia : Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

The micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) of Indonesia are an essential component of the economy of Indonesia. The number of MSMEs in Indonesia has reached 64,2 million, and MSMEs are responsible for 60.6% of Indonesia's gross domestic product (GDP). The majority of the micro, small, and medium-sized enterprise community was forced to engage in creative problem solving and rapid adaptation or run the risk of going out of business. The purpose of this study is to create a bibliometric map of research activities conducted by MSMEs in Indonesia. This research counts and analyzes how many articles about micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) have been published in Indonesia during the past five years. Bibliometrics and Vosviewer with R-Tool are used for analysis, and the study dataset is seen using the Dimensions database. According to the findings of the research conducted, Tambunan's article titled "Recent evidence of the development of micro, small and medium enterprises in Indonesia," which was published in the Journal of Global Entrepreneurship Research, is getting a lot of attention. He is widely regarded as the most accomplished author in this field. The VOSviewer study reveals that there are six key clusters that have been developed. It is interesting to note that the largest cluster can be located in Covid ; this indicates that research on MSMEs in Indonesia is only relevant while the pandemic is active.
