Entrepreneurship has become a key driver of economic growth and innovation. Universities play an important role in developing students' entrepreneurial competencies, but the factors influencing the success of students' start-up businesses must be better understood. This study aims to investigate the influence of experiential learning and entrepreneurial orientation on college students' start-up business performance and examine the moderating role of social networks. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from a sample of 150 entrepreneurial students at an Indonesian university through a questionnaire. The data was analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique with SmartPLS. Results showed that experiential learning (? = 0.352, p < 0.001) and entrepreneurial orientation (? = 0.417, p < 0.001) positively and significantly influenced students' start-up business performance. The social network was found to moderate the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and business performance (? = 0.183, p < 0.05). This study concludes that combining experiential learning, entrepreneurial mindset development, and social capital fostering is essential to nurturing successful young entrepreneurs. The findings provide valuable insights for universities in designing effective entrepreneurship education programs.

Economic growth serves as a fundamental aspect of national development, typically assessed through the increases in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP). While it plays a crucial role in enhancing income and overall welfare, an exclusive emphasis on economic growth without considering social and political equity can lead to significant vulnerabilities. In this context, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are essential, as they provide substantial contributions to job creation and economic resilience, particularly in developing countries like Indonesia.This study explores the impact of e-commerce on the economic growth of MSMEs in Banyumas Regency. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative research methodology, data were collected through interviews and direct observations, supported by secondary literature. The findings indicate that the integration of e-commerce has not significantly influenced the income of MSME owners and farmers, revealing a preference for conventional business models. This situation underscores the need for a comprehensive strategy to effectively leverage digital technology to enhance the competitiveness and income of MSMEs

A valid agreement creates a contract that gives rise to rights and obligations between the parties, and if one party does not fulfill its obligations, it can be declared to be in default. Default can be interpreted as the failure to fulfill or negligent in carrying out obligations as stipulated in the agreement made by the creditor and debtor. One example of a case of default regarding debts involving the Deputy Regent of Sidoarjo, Subandi, who borrowed IDR 1 billion from Darmiati Tansilong. The Supreme Court rejected Subandi's appeal (Decision No. 1609/K/Pdt/2022) and stated that he was in default. The Supreme Court's decision emphasized that the default committed by Subandi poses a risk in the form of debt repayment, paying profit sharing for property business development and the total interest that has been promised.

Stigma is a negative label attached to an individual by society and influenced by the surrounding environment. In reality, individuals with mental disorders often experience greater stigma and discrimination from the community compared to those suffering from other medical illnesses. Ideally, the community should serve as a support system for people with mental disorders. This study aims to determine the influence of stigma on community attitudes toward individuals with mental disorders in Juli Seupeng Village, Juli Subdistrict, Bireuen Regency. This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 46 respondents, selected using purposive sampling. The study was conducted in Gampong Krueng July from August 10 to August 15. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents had a high level of stigma (32 respondents or 69.6%), and most community attitudes were categorized as negative (38 respondents or 82.6%). The bivariate analysis revealed a p-value of 0.016, which is less than the significance level of 0.05 (ρ = 0.016 < α = 0.05), indicating a significant relationship between stigma and community attitudes toward individuals with mental disorders. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. It is recommended that communities change their mindset and perspectives, as negative attitudes can trigger relapses in people with mental disorders.

The development of wearable technology such as sportwatches has driven an increase in purchasing interest, especially among millennials. This study aims to analyze the effect of product quality, brand image, and promotion on the purchase intention of sportwatches in the millennial consumer segment in Indonesia. This study uses a quantitative approach with an associative method. The sample consisted of 100 millennial respondents who were selected purposively, with an instrument in the form of a Likert scale closed questionnaire. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, F test, t test, and coefficient of determination. The results of the analysis show that the three independent variables, both simultaneously and partially, have a significant effect on the purchase intention of sportwatches. The product quality variable is the dominant factor in influencing purchase intention, followed by brand image and promotion. The coefficient of determination (Adjusted R Square) of 66.3% indicates that the combination of the three variables is able to explain most of the variation in consumer purchase intention. These findings provide strategic implications for manufacturers in designing a more adaptive marketing approach to millennial preferences that prioritize quality, brand reputation, and digital promotional interactions.
