“…In particular, early emphasis on the construction of an entrepreneurial self-identity could be crucial to raising self-awareness and self-interest toward entrepreneurship, thus orienting professional careers towards entrepreneurship (Liñán et al 2018). In fact, a recent study demonstrated that youngers with role models oriented to entrepreneurship-either a family related or a friend who is self-employed-are more inclined to develop entrepreneurial intention (Garaika and Margahana 2019;Meoli et al 2020). This is possible because through the experience of others, the wanna be entrepreneurs can have a taste of who an entrepreneur really is and can ask him/herself if he/she want to be one.…”

Although many studies have shown that entrepreneurial intention can be explained according to a theory of planned behavior, some scholars have provided interesting insights into the role of entrepreneurial self-identity perception as a significant precursor of entrepreneurial intention. A questionnaire was administered to graduates and students of an Italian university (N = 153). A hierarchical regression analysis controlling for demographic variables was performed in order to test the research hypotheses. The findings of this study are discussed, with particular attention paid to the unexpected, weak, or non-significant effects of perceived behavioral control and social norms on entrepreneurial intention.

“…The university context can be a source of valuable social contacts for the aspiring student-entrepreneur. Universities contribute to the level of engagement in entrepreneurship and to the student entrepreneur's overall progress through the venturing process [Meoli et al, 2020;Morris, Shirokova, Tsukanova, 2017]. In addition to offering entrepreneurship courses and programs, universities facilitate entrepreneurial activity by organizing networking events, business plan competitions, and providing mentoring and sometimes even seed funding.…”

Nascent entrepreneurs are those individuals who engage in start-up activities as part of the process of starting a new venture. In many cases, these activities lead to successful founding, but in some situations, the entrepreneur's initial ideas go unrealized because the new venture cannot mobilize the necessary resources needed to create a fledging firm. In this paper, we look at the impact of the family and university social context on young student nascent entrepreneurs. Our findings based on Global University Entrepreneurial Spirit Students' Survey (GUESSS) wave in 2011 suggest that both family and university have a significant impact on the entrepreneurs' progress through the venturing process. However, when we take a finergrained look, we find surprising gender differences. Female entrepreneurs rely on their strong family ties for support; however, they are also able to better utilize their weaker university connections to make progress through the venture creation process than are men. This suggests that for women, all types of social support are important in their venture creation processes.

“…Intensi kewirausahaan merupakan tindakantindakan awal yang diambil seseorang sebelum memulai start-up atau menghasilkan penjualan awal yang berkaitan dengan pembukaan bisnis (Katre & Salipante, 2012). Intensi kewirausahaan juga diakui sebagai langkah utama untuk membuat usaha baru dalam proses kewirausahaan (Meoli, Fini, Sobrero, & Wiklund, 2019). Seseorang yang memiliki Intensi kewirausahaan menyakini bahwa, membuka dan menjalankan usaha adalah alternatif profesi yang cocok untuk dirinya (Colm O'Gorman, 2019).…”

The problem in this study is the increase in unemployment in vocational high schools (SMK) caused by differences between student expertise and corporate culture. This study discusses the family background of influencing entrepreneurial intentions. The research method used was an explanatory survey using a questionnaire as an instrument using a Likert scale of 1-5. The population in this study were all students of class XII SMK in Bangka Regency. The sample in this study consisted of 320 students. Based on the results of the study showed that family background influences the intention of entrepreneurship significantly, both partially and simultaneously. Students who have an entrepreneurial family background have an average score higher than students who have a family background rather than an entrepreneur. The findings on the measurement of the intention of entrepreneurship plan indicators totaled to 4,51, meaning students have a high seriousness of thinking and planning regarding opening a new business. The second highest indicator is the desire of 4.12, meaning students have the desire to be independent and will be in the future. The highest indicator is a preference of 4,00, meaning that students prefer entrepreneurship as a career choice in the future when choosing a career again as a worker. It can be concluded that the intention of entrepreneurship students in vocational schools in Bangka Regency is high in category.
