Educational transformation in the era of globalization and the Industrial Revolution 4.0 requires educational institutions not only to produce academically competent graduates but also individuals with entrepreneurial spirit, creativity, and adaptability. The high rate of educated unemployment indicates the need for alternative approaches, one of which is the implementation of an edupreneurial business model. This concept integrates entrepreneurial principles into educational management, emphasizing innovation, value creation, and sustainability. This study analyzes the application of business models in edupreneurship within formal educational institutions, covering conventional, digital, and social models. The findings indicate that edupreneurship enhances educational relevance, expands accessibility, and supports financial independence of institutions. Social edupreneurship is considered effective in promoting educational equity through socially impactful business models. The success of implementing an edupreneurial business model depends on continuous innovation, technological utilization, strategic partnerships, and diversification of funding sources. Therefore, edupreneurship is recommended as a visionary, adaptive, and sustainable strategy for educational transformation.

This study aims to analyze the transformation process of Islamic edupreneurship values in developing an educational ecosystem oriented toward independence and blessing (barakah) within Islamic schools. The low entrepreneurial and independent spirit among students remains a major challenge for Islamic educational institutions seeking to instill spiritually grounded entrepreneurship values. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach through a case study at an Islamic elementary school. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results reveal that the internalization of Islamic edupreneurship values—such as amanah (trustworthiness), shidq (honesty), jiddiyyah (diligence), ibda‘ (creativity), and mas’uliyyah (responsibility)—successfully shifted students’ mindset from consumptive to productive orientation with a focus on barakah. The transformation occurred through curriculum integration, teacher modeling, socio-economic projects, and spiritual habituation. The Islamic edupreneurship-based ecosystem strengthened students’ character, microeconomic independence, and the culture of blessed work. This study recommends developing an Integrative Islamic Edupreneurship Curriculum Model to foster a competitive and morally upright generation.

Educational business incubation has become an important strategy for strengthening independence and innovation in elementary schools in the era of educational transformation. This approach allows schools to function not only as teaching institutions but also as centers for community-based economic and social empowerment. This study employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to analyze various scientific publications related to the implementation of educational business incubation, edupreneurship, and the strengthening of elementary school institutions. The findings indicate that educational business incubation programs can create alternative funding sources, expand opportunities for innovative learning, and reinforce a participatory culture within schools. Beyond financial aspects, business incubation also promotes cross-sector collaboration among schools, government, private sectors, and communities, thereby establishing a sustainable edupreneurship ecosystem. Through strategic and collaborative management, elementary schools can become independent, innovative institutions with high competitiveness in facing future educational challenges.

This study aims to describe the implementation of co-curricular activities in instilling edupreneurship values through the production of “Keripik Lumer” (Melted Chips) among fourth-grade students at MIM Kauman Wiradesa. The activity was designed as contextual learning that emphasizes not only entrepreneurial skills but also Islamic values such as honesty, responsibility, and independence. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach involving teachers and fourth-grade students as participants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed interactively using data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the co-curricular activity was implemented in a planned, systematic, and continuous manner through three stages: planning, implementation, and evaluation. The teacher acted as a facilitator who guided students to develop responsibility, teamwork, creativity, and motivation throughout the process. Students demonstrated high enthusiasm, independence, and discipline during the activities. Through direct experience, students not only understood entrepreneurial concepts but also internalized positive character traits such as cooperation, self-confidence, and perseverance. Therefore, co-curricular activities based on local products like “Keripik Lumer” proved effective as contextual learning media that foster an entrepreneurial spirit from an early age. This program can serve as an innovative learning model for the development of entrepreneurship education in elementary schools and madrasahs.

Digital Health Edupreneurship is a concept of student empowerment that integrates health education, digital technology, and entrepreneurial skills. Through this approach, students are not only passive recipients of information but also active creators of digital innovations,such as mobile apps, social media content, educational videos, and online platforms,designed to promote healthy behaviors within schools and the broader community. The main objective of this initiative is to explore and analyze how student innovation in digital health can serve as an effective tool for health promotion while simultaneously fostering entrepreneurial spirit among students. The method used in this program involves lectures and interactive demonstrations. The activity was carried out in three stages: planning and preparation, implementation and process, and finally evaluation and monitoring. Throughout the implementation phase, students were guided to form innovation groups, develop relevant digital content, and collaboratively present their ideas. These activities not only encouraged creativity but also enhanced student engagement in real-world applications of both health promotion and entrepreneurship.The results revealed a significant improvement in students’ knowledge. Prior to the program, only 25.9% of students were categorized as having good knowledge. After the digital health edupreneurship session, this number increased to 88.9%. These findings indicate that the Digital Health Edupreneurship approach is effective in improving health literacy and cultivating student creativity and entrepreneurial mindset in a practical and collaborative learning environment
