“…In developed countries, both in Europe and the United States, new entrepreneurs are created every month. This entrepreneurial growth brings extraordinary economic growth so that the more a country has entrepreneurs, the more the economy will increase [9][10][11][12][13][14]. Likewise, in developing countries like Indonesia, entrepreneurship has long been introduced as an effort to drive the economy.…”

Entrepreneurship is an important issue in the economy of a developing nation. However, the development of entrepreneurs in Indonesia is still very low when compared to other countries. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze the determinants of the Sustainable Youth Entrepreneurial Intention for Agricultural start-ups. Analysis was performed using the Structural Equation Model. In addition, an analysis of the main factors of interest for Sustainable Youth Entrepreneurship In Agricultural start-ups uses Smart PLS 3.2.9 on questionnaire data from 738 youth respondents in Indonesia. The results show that attitude, subjective norm, and behavioral control variables have a significant influence on the model of Shapero’s entrepreneurial event (perceived desirability and perceived feasibility) and the sustainable intention of entrepreneurship in agriculture start-ups. Based on the research results, this study can be a reference for practitioners in increasing their sustainable entrepreneurial intention by applying the significance activation method to increase academic behavior and interest. In addition, the government can socialize more projects and training programs or entrepreneurship programs to increase the interest of the younger generation in relation to agricultural start-ups as part of the strategy.

“…The low interest in entrepreneurship has resulted in a slowdown in national economic growth which has dragged on an increase in the open unemployment rate (Abdelnaeim, 2021;Ahmed, 2021;Discua et al, 2021). The low number of entrepreneurs is caused by several factors, starting from the education system in Indonesia which is less sup-portive, the lack of business innovation, and the mentality of entrepreneurs who want to succeed instantly (Astiana, 2022;Eryanto et al, 2018;Hamid, 2022;Hermann et al, 2020). Awareness of the importance of entrepreneurship is not emphasized early on in school.…”

The courage to take risks to open a new business has not been fully embedded in most technical education students. One of the influences is low student self-efficacy due to a lack of self-confidence in students who think there is a failure in opening a new business. So this research examines and analyzes in-depth related entrepreneurial interest as measured through self-efficacy, family, and university environment in technical education students. The probability sampling method using a random sampling technique was used in taking a sample of 450 participants in technical education students. The most dominant item in representing the success of entrepreneurial interest is creativity at 84.80%. The weakest construct is the never-give-up construct of 71.50%. The ability of the structural model to explain Entrepreneurial Interest is 61.80%, while the Entrepreneurial Interest variable explains 50.50% of the phenomena predicted in the field. The path analysis test reveals that the three variables influence the interest in entrepreneurship positively and significantly. This study recommends that universities foster an interest in entrepreneurship by providing technical assistance in developing businesses, inviting entrepreneurial speakers, holding industrial visits, and conducting training programs. These steps are expected to foster student interest in entrepreneurship.

“…The first is that embeddedness relates to social networks (Busch and Barkema, 2020a; Czernek-Marszałek, 2020; Lin et al , 2019; Meister and Mauer, 2019; Tok and Kaminski, 2019). The second is that entrepreneurs are socially embedded in network structures (Abd Hamid and Everett, 2021; Aeeni et al , 2019; Roundy and Bayer, 2019; Zulu-Chisanga et al , 2021). Finally, according to Stam et al (2014, p. 153), scholars “increasingly acknowledge that entrepreneurial activity is embedded in network relationships that direct resource flows to entrepreneurs who are better connected.” This third notion is especially relevant.…”

Purpose Embeddedness has gained prominence in entrepreneurship studies. However, the notion that the embeddedness metaphor relates to “market” structures prevails in studies in the area. Entrepreneurship scholars still know little about whether entrepreneurs are eventually embedded in other structures whose relationships go beyond the restricted dimension of the interested actor’s assumption. This study aims to propose investigating the social structures in which a specific type of entrepreneurship, the religious one, is embedded. Design/methodology/approach The research was qualitative, using interviews as an evidence collection instrument. A total of 17 entrepreneur-pastors responsible for business churches in Brazil and eight parishioners took part in the study. Findings Religious entrepreneurs are embedded in market structures, corroborating a perspective that associates embeddedness with the utilitarian notion. At the same time, entrepreneurs are embedded in two other social structures: reciprocity and redistribution. Practical implications This article emphasizes the relevance of going beyond the predominant perspective associated with the utilitarian and rationalized understanding of embeddedness in relationship networks. Originality/value This study makes essential contributions. Initially, it attests to the utilitarian perspective of Granovetter’s embeddedness while suggesting incorporating two other dimensions into the metaphor. By highlighting this, this article stresses the need to reinterpret the metaphor of embeddedness and how entrepreneurship scholars use it. Further, by emphasizing the need to consider embeddedness in networks beyond its still utilitarian perspective, this paper highlights unexplored opportunities for entrepreneurship scholars.
