Abstract

This study aims to compare the differences in the attractiveness of product advertising content with human influencers and VTubers using the audience experience approach. The audience's experience is seen through an assessment of the pragmatic and hedonic qualities of the two advertisements viewed. Attrakdiff is used as a method to measure the assessment of both product advertisements. There are 20 respondents who are asked to view both advertisements and fill out two different questionnaires representing advertisements with human influencers and VTubers. The results show that the attractiveness of advertisements with human influencers and VTubers has almost the same attractiveness. There are differences in pragmatic and hedonic-identity quality (human influencers are superior) and hedonic-stimulation (VTubers are superior), which differentiate between the two. Although there are differences in the assessment of the audience's experience in watching content from human influencers and VTubers, both still have almost the same appeal.

Abstract

This mixed‐methods study explores how undergraduate students in an Applied Digital Business program identify and develop innovation ideas, the barriers they encounter, and the institutional support they require. Survey and interview data reveal a consistent pattern: while most students recognise digital knowledge as critical for ideation, many struggle to transform concepts into validated prototypes, citing technical gaps and uncertainty over business‑model design. Technology trends and shifts in user behaviour emerge as the dominant catalysts for idea generation, yet diagnosing meaningful real‑world problems remains a central challenge. Qualitative insights highlight the need for structured mentoring, live market exposure, and interdisciplinary collaboration. The paper proposes three curricular interventions—studio‑based prototyping, an external mentor pool, and validation sandboxes with local SMEs—to bridge the ideation–execution divide. These findings enrich the discourse on student innovation capability and offer practical guidance for higher‑education programmes aiming to cultivate applied digital entrepreneurship.

Abstract

This study explores the configuration of digital entrepreneurship ecosystems in Indonesian higher education institutions (HEIs), emphasizing barriers and enabling factors that shape students’ entrepreneurial engagement. Using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, the research integrates quantitative survey data (N = 173) and qualitative interviews to examine entrepreneurial readiness, innovation capacity, and institutional support structures. Findings indicate that students demonstrate high motivation and self-efficacy but face persistent constraints related to mentorship, funding, and technical access. The qualitative phase identifies six recurring challenges—ideation and market-fit, marketing skills, time management, mentoring gaps, technical limitations, and financial barriers—revealing a fragmented yet promising ecosystem. To address these issues, the study proposes the Strategic Empowerment Model for Digital Entrepreneurship (SEM-DE), a four-lever framework emphasizing structured ideation, continuous mentoring, skill-based clinics, and micro-grant schemes. This research contributes a contextualized and actionable model for strengthening university-based entrepreneurship ecosystems and informs policy directions toward inclusive, innovation-driven higher education in emerging economies.
