Entrepreneurship is believed to bring a positive impact on the prosperity of a community, job creation, and economic outlook of a nation through the numerous small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Thus, the study was to examine the correlation of five actors (academic, business, community, government, and media, ABCGM in short) in terms of the Penta Helix model, which aims to develop the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises as the fundamental pillar of a national economy. The study employed a quantitative and qualitative approach. The data were obtained from an online survey, Focus group discussion, and interviews with several small and medium-sized enterprises. Fifty-four respondents of small, medium-sized enterprises in Bandung participated in the study. The data were analyzed using the non-parametric test of Kendall's tau to find out the correlations of five variables. The finding has revealed that the five variables have a significant correlation, both at the 0.05 level and at the 0.01 level. Based on the component matrix, the strength of the correlation of each factor that is formed is 0.840 (academic), 0.924 government, 0.884 (industry/business), 0.842 (media) and 0.729 (community). Besides, the government plays a significant contribution to the development of SMEs as it functions as a policymaker, which synergizes the other actors. It indicates that five actors of Penta helix model enable to develop the performance of SMEs and its sustainability through their collaboration.

Triple helix model is a model of a knowledge-based economy, which collaborates with the university, business, and government sectors to help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) boost their business. The issue is the three actors have not yet synergized optimally in the development of SMEs. Hence, this study was to identify the critical success factors of the triple helix model for SMEs. This study employed a meta-ethnography and factor analysis to obtain components and indicators of the success factors. The result showed that 37 items of critical success factors have good content validity and excellent homogeneity reliability. Based on these success factors, a triple helix model consisting of six stages has developed. It indicates that these critical success factors make an essential contribution to the development and success of SMEs to achieve the goal of the program.JEL Classification: L52, L53
