Strategies that can be implemented to overcome these challenges are : 1) Developing a structured and comprehensive entrepreneur curriculum and programs; 2) Improving access to capital and information for santri; 3) fFostering an entrepreneurial culture within the pesantren environment; 4) Strengthening guidance and mentoring from entrepreneurs.
