Abstract The
Covid-19 pandemic has precipitated a shift in business transactions from
offline to online, presenting opportunities for growth in Semarang City's
creative economy sectors such as Applications and Games, Music, Culinary,
Fashion, and Crafts. Despite these opportunities, the development of the
creative economy in Semarang City appears fragmented and lacks clear
direction, compounded by challenges in accessing comprehensive development
data. This study aims to identify the factors influencing the inclusive and
sustainable development of Semarang City's creative economy. Utilizing
primary data from direct surveys and Focus Group Discussions (FGD), alongside
secondary data from Semarang City's regional government and the Central
Bureau of Statistics (BPS), this research employs the Partial Least Squares
(PLS) Analysis Method to analyze these factors. Findings reveal significant
ongoing development across Semarang City's creative industries, with culinary
(22.9%), music (20.8%), product design (7.08%), fashion (9.91%), and crafts
(9.2%) emerging as key subsectors. The study identifies academician and
government support as directly influencing the competitive advantage of
Semarang City's creative economy, while private sector, community, and media
involvement show indirect effects. The model proposes that a collaborative
approach involving academicians, government, private sector, community, and
media—a Penta Helix framework—is crucial for fostering further growth and
mobilizing Semarang City's creative economy. Keywords: Creative Economy, Inclusive, Sustainable, Semarang City. |
INTRODUCTION
The term creative economy was first
introduced by John Howkins
UK DCMS through Creative Economic Estimates 2015 differentiates creative economy and creative industry.
Creative industry is an inseparable
part of creative
economy (creative economy also includes
creative industry)
The role of
the creative economy in the national economy and the characteristics
of Indonesia which is famous for
its socio-cultural diversity spread throughout the archipelago definitely can be a source
of inspiration in developing the creative economy. In general, each region has product potential that can be
raised and developed. The uniqueness or peculiarity of local products
must be the
core, then add elements of
creativity with a touch of technology.
Cities in Indonesia, with their unique features,
have the potential to be
developed as creative cities. Creative economic development can be carried
out in line with tourism development
One of the
areas that has great creative economic potential is Semarang City. Many creative economy sectors have been
established in Semarang, consisting
of 17 creative economy categories. However, in its calculations, the creative economy sector is still
mixed with its conventional parent sector. From 2016 to 2019, all Semarang City GRDP sectors experienced an increase, however, the Semarang City GRDP sector in
2020 experienced a decline,
including the construction, wholesale and retail; car and motorbike repairs,
transportation and warehousing, provision of accommodation and food and
drink, real estate, corporate services, government administration, defense and mandatory
social security, educational services, and other services.
The decline in GRDP in several
sectors is the impact of
the Covid-19 pandemic which began in 2020, and caused the
government to implement various policies to limit people's economic activities.
The decline in economic growth to minus value was caused
by the effects
of the Covid-19 pandemic, which caused a decline in the GDRP sector value in several sectors. By developing the creative economy,
it is expected
that Semarang City's economic growth can be boosted
again. Semarang City has a local
cultural heritage that has good potential
to be developed
but does not yet have the
characteristics of local products in terms of culture.
MSME academician also admits that Semarang City itself still does
not have local characteristics that are formed through their creative MSME products

Figure 1. Inclusive Economic Development Index of
Semarang City 2016-2020.
Over the past five
years, the Inclusive Economic Development
Index of Semarang City has tended
to fluctuate. Therefore, more massive efforts are needed so that
the development direction of Semarang City can reduce income
inequality, reduce poverty rates, and provide more
access and opportunities to society. Another main thing is to
focus on sustainable city development. In the Regional
Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMD), Semarang City for
2016-2021 also contains more inclusive and sustainable development targets, such as reducing poverty rates, income inequality, and employment or expanding employment
opportunities. One of the sectors that
can be directed
towards inclusive and sustainable development is the creative economy.
The creative economy can provide opportunities
for all parties,
for large businesses and MSMEs to be
involved in business activities, and provide economic benefits.
One of the sectors
that can be directed towards
inclusive and sustainable development is the creative
economy. The development of the creative
economy can be encouraged more.
Efforts to develop the creative
economy have been carried out
by several previous studies but still produce
different concepts and models. Efforts
to develop the creative economy
can be carried
out with the concept of
optimizing the role of stakeholders
which consist of three main actors
(triple helix) which include business
people, government, and academiciansn
This research aims to identify factors
influencing inclusive and sustainable development within the creative economy
sector in Semarang City, analyze stakeholder roles in promoting inclusive and
sustainable practices, develop effective strategies and recommendations based
on empirical findings and best practices, address research gaps by focusing on
underexplored inclusive and sustainable aspects compared to previous studies
emphasizing stakeholder roles and strategic development, and provide insights to
support policy-making and practical interventions for enhancing a more
inclusive and sustainable creative economy ecosystem in Semarang City.

RESULTS
AND DISCUSSION
Descriptive Analysis
In general, all sub-sectors of the
creative economy are evidently growing and developing in Semarang City.
As one of the largest trading
cities in Central Java and one of
the largest in Indonesia, the creative industry
in Semarang City certainly continues
to develop. This can be
seen from the many and
varied creative industry actors. Below is a table
of types of creative economy
businesses that have collaborated with the Semarang City Government, in this case, creative economy exhibition events. The data on creative economy actors are obtained from the Economic
Committee of Semarang City and searched through
the Economic sub-sector Coordinator of Semarang City. The data are community-based
and each sub-sector has its coordinator.
Table 1. below
shows the number of creative
economy actors in 2021 who joined the
auspices of the Creative Economy
Committee of Semarang City.
Semarang City currently has actors
in all sub-sectors of the creative
economy. This shows that the
Creative Economy development in Semarang City has developed
significantly. Of the 17 subsectors, Semarang City
has five main Creative Economy subsectors, namely culinary, music, product design, fashion, and crafts.
Three mainstay subsectors such as culinary, crafts, and fashion are still very promising
because the demand is still
high. The music subsector
has great potential for development because there are many communities or actors. Based
on information in Table 4.1, it is
known that the five main sub-sectors of the
creative economy in
Semarang City are culinary (22.9%), music (20.8%), fashion (9.91%), crafts (9.2%), and product design.
(7.08 %). Meanwhile, other
sub-sectors are still below 5%, such as Interior
Design, Visual Communication Design, Publishing, Architecture, Applications, Fine Arts, Television and Radio, Advertising, Photography, Performing Arts, and Game Developers.

Based on the description of the manifest variables
(indicators) of each exogenous variable and endogenous variable, a structural
model can be designed as follows:
Outer-Model Evaluation
Evaluation of the outer
model is carried out by measuring validity and reliability. Evaluation of the
validity of the measurement model, namely convergent validity and discriminant
validity. The reliability test in PLS is used to measure internal consistency,
one of the ways that can be used is to look at the composite reliability value.
Evaluation of convergent
validity is shown by the loading factor value. An indicator is said to be valid
if the loading correlation with the construct being measured has a value >
0.6. The table below shows the evaluation of convergent validity in this
research as follows:

Based on
table 2. it can be explained
that all indicators for each variable have
a loading factor value above 0.5 so it can
be concluded that all indicators
meet the requirements for convergent validity.
The reflective
indicators need to be tested
for discriminant validity by comparing
the Average Variance Extracted (AVE) value of the
extracted average variance and the
correlation involving the latent variable.
The model has good discriminant
validity if the root AVE value
of each latent
variable is greater than the
correlation value between the latent
variable and other latent variables
in the model and it is recommended
that the AVE value should be
greater than 0.50 (Kock and Lyn, 2012).
Source: Processed
primary data output, 2021
Table 3. shows
that the Average Variance Extracted (AVE) value of the average
variance extracted for each variable
is greater than 0.5, and the
correlation value between the latent
variable and other latent variables
in the model is greater, so it
can be concluded
that the discriminant validity in the model is met.
The next examination is measuring reliability.
This examination is carried out
to see the
construct internal consistency,
which is evaluated through Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability
values. The Cronbach's alpha and composite
reliability values obtained for all
latent variables are above 0.6, so it
is said to
be reliable.

be concluded that all indicators
in the variables are reliable.
Inner-Model Evaluation
Evaluation of
the structural model in SEM
with PLS is carried out by
conducting the R-squared (R2), Goodness of Fit (Gof) test,
and significance test by estimating
the path coefficient.

Based on
Table 6, it can be seen
that the R-Square value for
the competitive advantage variable shows a value of
0.592. This value indicates that academician, government, private sector, community, media, human capital, and business performance
variables affect competitive advantage by 59.2%. This value shows that
the model in this study falls within the
moderate criteria because the value
of 0.592 ranges from the value
of 0.33.
PLS Path Modeling analysis can identify global optimization criteria to determine the
Goodness of Fit index. The Goodness of Fit or GoF
index was developed by Tenehause
et al. (2004) and is used
to evaluate measurement models and structural models, as well as provide a simple measurement of the overall model predictions. The Gof value criteria are 0.10, 0.25, and 0.36 which indicate that GoF
Small, Gof Medium, and GoF Large
(Ghozali and Latan, 2015).
The Gof value in this research model can be seen
in Table 7. as follows:

Based
on Table 7, the GoF value can be calculated using the square root of the
average communality index and average R-squares values (Ghozali and Latan,
2015) as follows:
𝐺𝑜𝐹 = √𝐶𝑜𝑚 𝑥 𝑅2
𝐺𝑜𝐹 = √0.650 𝑥 0.584
GoF = 0.616
Based on
the calculations above, a GoF value
of 0.616 can be obtained, so
it can be
concluded that the model in this research is included
in the GoF Large criteria. Next, a Significance
Test (Bootstraping) is carried out
to see whether
a hypothesis can be accepted or
rejected, which can be done
by paying attention to the
significance value between the t-statistic
constructs and p-values. With this
technique, measurement estimates and standard
errors are no longer calculated using statistical assumptions but are based on empirical
observations. In the bootstrap resampling method in this research, the significance
value used (two-tailed) t-value is 1.985 (significance level=5%) with the condition
that the t-statistic value must be greater
than 1.985. Hypothesis
testing using the SEM PLS method is carried
out by carrying
out a bootstrapping process with the
help of SmartPLS
3.3 software so that the relationship
between the effect of exogenous
variables on endogenous variables is obtained as follows:
