Universitas Informatika dan Bisnis Indonesia (Unibi) is actively cultivating an entrepreneurial ecosystem to shape its students into young business leaders. The university is embedding entrepreneurial principles across all its study programs, aiming to equip graduates with the skills to not only enter the workforce but also to generate employment opportunities.
Anang Bambang Pujianto, Unibi's Vice Rector for Academic Affairs, stated that the university's identity is built on the vision of "Be the Young Entrepreneur." He emphasized that entrepreneurial values are consistently integrated into the learning process, encouraging students to think creatively, innovatively, and independently. "Our differentiation is certainly in line with the main tagline, which is Be the Young Entrepreneur. We consistently embed entrepreneurial values in every learning process," Anang said.
A concrete step in this direction is the optimization of the Business Incubator Center (PIB). This center, which has earned a B accreditation and ranks among the top 10 business incubators, serves as a hub for student development and mentorship. It provides students with a platform to refine their business concepts, expand their networks, and receive essential business guidance.
Unibi aspires to produce graduates who are not merely professional employees but also successful entrepreneurs capable of creating new jobs and contributing to economic growth. "We encourage our students to become independent individuals who can create job opportunities for others," Anang noted. Beyond entrepreneurship, Unibi also focuses on community engagement, aiming to broaden access to higher education so that more families have members pursuing university degrees, with the goal of ensuring at least one university graduate per family.
