Affecting Factors of Technopreneurial Intention toward Younger Generation

Abstract

This study aims to examine factors associated with technopreneurial intention by adapting theory of reasoned action (TRA) and technology acceptance model (TAM). Proportional random sampling was used to collect information from 108 undergraduate students of Business Administration Department and Information System Department. Partial Least Square (PLS) was used to analyze the data. The findings indicate that the significant effect of environment on technopreneurial intention, while academic climate has significant effect on attitude and selfefficacy. The findings suggest that creating positive environment particularly family and a conducive academic climate are needed to support technopreneurial intention among undergraduate students.

Technology Entrepreneurship Intention among Higher Education Institutions Students: A Literature Review

“…This is supported by other studies by Nurhayati et al, (2019 and Wardani et al, (2020) that also reported a positive relationship between technopreneurial learning and technopreneurial intention. On the other hand, a study by Utami (2018) indicated that environmental factor has a significant effect on technopreneurial intention, while academic climate has a significant effect on attitude and self-efficacy, hence creating a positive environment and academic climate is important to support technopreneurial intention among undergraduate students. Similarly, in another study by Boller (2018), it was found that technopreneur-related activities significantly affect technopreneurial intention and suggested that educators and policymakers incorporate more technopreneurial-related activities in their fields to develop intention.…”
