Abstract

This research aimed to investigate how social media use affects e-entrepreneurial intention, using perceived university support as a moderating variable. The research would use a quantitative approach. Based on the purposive sampling method, the number of samples used was 359 students from universities in Makassar city, Indonesia. Data were acquired by distributing online questionnaires to students. The structural equation model (SEM) technique with Smart PLS 3.0 was used in this research. The research found that e-entrepreneurial intention was significantly and favorably impacted by social media use and perceived university support. Nevertheless, perceived university support did not moderate the association between social media use and e-entrepreneurial intention. The research has limitations focusing on business students in state universities and examining only one endogenous and moderating variable in the conceptual model. The implication of the research contributed to the deeper understanding of the role of social media usage and perceived university support in stimulating students’ e-entrepreneurial intention for entrepreneurship educators and the leaders of university.
