Technopreneurship Engagement: The Behavioural Intentions of Nigerian and Indonesian Undergraduates in an Emerging Society 5.0

SUMMARY

Developing the mindset of the younger ones towards technopreneurship engagement is important so as to reduce youth unemployment. This study therefore investigated some factors namely entrepreneurship attitudes, skills, and knowledge (e-ASK) in relation to the behavioural intentions to technopreneurship engagement among Nigerian and Indonesian Undergraduates in an Emerging Society 5.0. The descriptive research design was used. The study was piloted by two null hypotheses. The target population comprised all 5019 undergraduates in two purposively selected Nigerian and Indonesian universities, out of which 336 were selected through stratified random sampling technique. A self-designed, validated, and reliable instrument (r=.88) entitled “Behavioural Intentions of Technopreneurship Engagement Scale (BITES)” was used for data collection. Methods of data analysis were Multiple Regression and Independent t-test. Findings showed that the joint contributions of e-ASK to the variance in technopreneurship engagement  were 5.5%. There was also significant difference in behavioural intentions to technopreneurship engagement among Nigerian and Indonesian Undergraduates ((t=-2.376; df=334, p<.05). We therefore recommend among others that students should be encouraged to develop positive attitudes towards entrepreneurship and technology which made the highest relative and significant contribution to behavioural intentions to technopreneurship engagement.
