The increasing number of graduates in tertiary institutions every year is inversely proportional to the fact that the unemployment rate in this country is also increasing. This situation illustrates that the absorption of the labor market by university graduates is very weak or very small. To balance this, there needs to be an effort to develop an entrepreneurial entrepreneurial spirit among students, in order to reduce educated unemployment in this country. This paper describes the concept of entrepreneurship, factors that influence entrepreneurial success, and the efforts made by the Gatra Buana Gurabati Tidore Midwifery Academy in fostering entrepreneurship among midwifery students. Factors that influence entrepreneurial success in this paper include: 1) having high commitment and strong determination; 2) ambitious to seek opportunities; 3) have high morale and not easily give up; strong self-confidence; 5) have high creativity; 5) have the ability to see the future with proper planning. Furthermore, the efforts that have been made by the Gatra Buana Gurabati Tidore Academy in fostering entrepreneurship among students are by: 1) including the Midwifery Entrepreneurship course in the Higher Education curriculum; and 2) establishing cooperation with MSMEs in the North Maluku Province
