Abstract

Business sustainability is one of the interesting issue in the current discussion of SMEs because SMEs are faced many uncertainties both in terms of demand and supply, including the increasing of business competition. Moreover, SMEs are the business sectors that have felt the impact quite considerably because of the corona virus pandemic (Covid-19). In contrast to the 1998 crisis, SMEs at that time became saviors in moving the national economy recovery. The aim of this study is to investigate the contribution of digital entrepreneurship and product innovation to business sustainability of SMEs. This study was conducted with a quantitative approach using multiple regression analysis. The sample consisted of 306 SMEs in the Padang City, West Sumatera, Indonesia. The data were collected by using questionnaire survey. The findings of this study prove that product innovation has a positive and significant contribution to the business sustainability of the SMEs, while digital entrepreneurship of the SMEs does not have significant contribution to their business sustainability.
