<![CDATA[Students are a very potential component of nation-building. With a young age range, strong staff, a wide enough network, and the ability to think and have high creativity, it is the foundation and basic capital for the country's progress. BPS data as of February 2020 released Indonesia's employment conditions showing the unemployment rate fell to 5.01 percent or decreased by 50 thousand people over the past year. Although the aggregate unemployment rate has decreased, judging by the level of education, more and more university graduates are unemployed. The high level of educated unemployment is because many universities graduates target that after graduation, they have to get a job armed with the knowledge they have obtained through their courses. Even though they are university graduates, it is not easy for someone to be accepted into a job, increasing the number of unemployed. By seeing these problems, it is appropriate for the government and related parties to develop a strategy to direct university graduates to become job creators, not job seekers. This underlies the importance of efforts to build an entrepreneurial spirit among students. The rise of digital technology today can be said to be a form of change management in the business world; by utilizing digital technology in the business sector, it is hoped that an entrepreneurial spirit will form among students. But unfortunately, the current conditions are where students can't take advantage of sophisticated digital technology opportunities to seize entrepreneurship opportunities and make them a livelihood. The study aimed to describe: (1) supporting and inhibiting factors in building student entrepreneurship; and (2) strategies to build student entrepreneurship through digital technology businesses. This research is a qualitative descriptive study located at STKIP PGRI Jombang. The data sources used are primary and secondary. The research subjects were entrepreneurship lecturers and students of the 2019 economic education study program who had taken theory and practice entrepreneurship courses.
