Abstract

Innovation is essential to the resilience and development of MSMEs to take advantage of the opportunities available to use their potential. This study aims at determining the ability of MSMEs to innovate so that they can develop their business. The innovations measured include packaging, market segments, products, and production processes. The method used is a descriptive qualitative method and continuous analysis with MICMAC and MACTOR software. Data were obtained through FGDs, surveys, in-depth interviews, and questionnaires to 111 micro and small entrepreneurs in Majalengka Regency, and it was determined based on accidental sampling. The results showed that entrepreneurs had made promising innovations, especially in more efficient production processes with simple machines, product development, market segment expansion, and packaging innovation. The results also showed that entrepreneurial leadership is an essential factor that can increase creativity and innovation and impact marketing performance. Parties that can influence it are the Department of Manpower, Cooperatives, MSMEs, and investors. The White Ocean Strategy can be applied so that entrepreneurs create synergies to survive and to develop their businesses.
