Abstract

The primary aim of this research is to investigate the influence of corporate social responsibility (CSR) partnerships and empowerment on business conduct, along with their potential consequences for the performance of small enterprises. The research sample comprises 195 participants, specifically individuals who hold the positions of owners or general managers within small businesses that received assistance from PT Bio Farma in the region of West Java. The research methodology utilized a mixed methods approach, which is a comprehensive strategy that combines two well-established forms of inquiry: quantitative research and qualitative research. The data analysis procedure encompassed the utilization of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the aid of the SmartPLS software. The research findings suggest that there is a positive and statistically significant influence of corporate social responsibility (CSR) partnerships and empowerment on business behaviors. In the region of West Java, the provision of assistance from PT Bio Farma to small businesses has yielded positive outcomes through the implementation of CSR partnerships, the facilitation of empowerment, and the fostering of ethical business conduct. The performance of small businesses in West Java, which receive assistance from PT Bio Farma, can be influenced to some extent by CSR partnerships, with business behavior serving as a partial mediator.
