Abstract

This research aims to formulate a model for the development of economic transformation in Gorontalo City. The research approach used is mixed method explanatory design, which combines quantitative and qualitative analysis. Data was collected through questionnaires, observations, documentation, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with 10 experts consisting of OPDs, communities, and related stakeholders. Quantitative data analysis used the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and the qualitative Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study show that local governments are the main actors in the development of a smart economy, supported by universities, investors, and research institutions. The dominant factors that affect economic transformation in Gorontalo City are human resource capacity and digital literacy, entrepreneurial ecosystem, and circular economy innovation. The key strategies identified include community empowerment, entrepreneurship digitalization, strengthening innovation centers, and developing digital infrastructure. Gorontalo City still faces challenges such as low digital literacy, uneven infrastructure, and limited access to technology, but multi-sector collaboration and exploration of creative economy potential have opened up opportunities for innovation-based economic growth. The priority strategies in the development of economic transformation in Gorontalo City are community empowerment and business model development to create jobs, digitalization of circular economy-based entrepreneurship and financial inclusion and optimization of smart economic innovation centers based on education, research, and technology. In conclusion, the progressive economic model implemented is able to encourage sustainable achievement through innovation, cross-sector collaboration, and policies that support digital transformation. Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the equitable distribution of digital infrastructure, increase human resource capacity, and strengthen policies and collaboration to realize an inclusive and sustainable economic ecosystem in Gorontalo City, especially in optimizing the efforts of Gorontalo City as a City of Services.

Abstract

Regional economic transformation requires an adaptive strategy in facing the challenges of globalization, especially for Gorontalo City which has launched a vision as a City of Services. Strengthening the economy based on innovation, entrepreneurship, and the creative economy/tourism is the key to increasing regional competitiveness while encouraging sustainable economic growth. This research aims to analyze effective economic strengthening strategies through innovation approaches, MSME empowerment, and optimization of the creative tourism sector to achieve the mission of developing Gorontalo City as a center for services and creative economy in the eastern region of Indonesia. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative method with SWOT analysis to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in innovation-based economic development in Gorontalo City. Data was obtained through literature studies, analysis of regional planning documents, and in-depth interviews with stakeholders, including the government, MSME actors, creative communities, and academics. The results of the study show that the economic strengthening strategy in Gorontalo City is in the quadrant of the Turn Around Strategy, which focuses on taking advantage of great opportunities in the technology and creative tourism sectors while still overcoming various weaknesses, such as limited human resource capacity and digital infrastructure. The recommended strategic efforts include increasing human resource capacity through digital training, optimizing digital infrastructure, multi-stakeholder collaboration in the development of the creative sector, as well as providing access to innovative financing and strengthening innovation-friendly regulations. This research recommends that the Gorontalo City government accelerate digital transformation, strengthen synergy between sectors, and provide supporting policies to create an inclusive, resilient, and adaptive economic ecosystem, so as to be able to realize the vision of Gorontalo City as a highly competitive and sustainable City of Services.

Abstract

MSMEs play a strategic role in the local economy, but in Gorontalo City, their productivity and sectoral advantages show a complex dynamic and have not optimally supported the transformation towards a service-based city. This study aims to analyze the productivity and comparative and competitive advantages of MSMEs in Gorontalo City, as well as to map potential sectors for future development. The research uses a mixed-method approach with an explanatory sequential design, where quantitative analysis of productivity data from 2014–2024 and projections for 2025–2030 is conducted using dynamic system modeling with Vensim, as well as regression, exponential smoothing, and ARIMA methods. Sectoral advantage analysis is carried out using the LQShare and LQShift approaches, which are dynamic in nature. The results show that MSME productivity experienced fluctuations and a decline due to the pandemic, but began to recover in 2024 and is projected to increase in an optimistic scenario along with digitalization policies and strengthening the service sector. The LQ analysis identifies the garment and handicraft sectors as progressive, while the metal-electronics sector remains sluggish, and the building materials and food sectors fall under the developing category. The study recommends strengthening local fiscal policies, improving MSME digital literacy, developing an e-commerce ecosystem, and business incubation for the developing and sluggish sectors. These efforts are expected to strengthen MSME productivity sustainably and support the vision of Gorontalo City as a service economy hub in 2025–2029.

Abstract

Social development in the education sector plays a strategic role in enhancing the quality of human resources, particularly in regions such as Gorontalo City, which is currently facing challenges in education access and participation. This study aims to analyze the performance of social development through the indicator of Net Enrollment Rate (NER) at the elementary, secondary, and tertiary education levels. The research employed a mixed-method approach with an explanatory sequential design, combining quantitative analysis of NER data from 2014–2024 and forecasting for 2025–2030 using regression, exponential smoothing, and ARIMA methods. This was complemented with in-depth interviews with relevant stakeholders. The findings reveal that the NER for primary schools is approaching its maximum value; however, NERs for junior high schools, senior high schools, and higher education still show disparities and fluctuations, driven by economic, social, and digital infrastructure limitations. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated these conditions. The study concludes that improvements in NER heavily rely on the continuity of affirmative policies and digital transformation in education. Therefore, it is recommended that local governments strengthen multi-sector collaboration, expand scholarship programs, and accelerate equitable education digitalization to promote equal access and sustainably increase educational participation at all levels.

Abstract

The digital economic transformation and the implementation of Industry 4.0 have become a primary urgency in accelerating regional development, particularly in enhancing digital connectivity, local economic development, and the quality of human resources (HR) in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the role of technology and Industry 4.0 in driving digital-based economic progress in Gorontalo City and to evaluate its effectiveness in three main aspects: digital connectivity, local economy, and HR strengthening. Using a mixed-method approach with an explanatory design, data were collected through questionnaires, observations, documentation, and focus group discussions (FGD) from 20 respondents consisting of local government agencies (OPD), the public, and relevant stakeholders. The analysis was conducted using the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) method and the qualitative technique of the Miles & Huberman model. The results show that the impact of technology on the local economy and digital connectivity was deemed quite effective, although improvements are still needed, particularly in infrastructure and access equity. Meanwhile, the strengthening of HR and digital skills-based employment is still categorized as less effective and remains a top priority for improvement. Therefore, it is recommended that the government expand digital training, strengthen cross-sector partnerships, and promote inclusive policies to ensure that digital transformation progresses equitably and sustainably.
