2017 
Currently, Indonesia has only 1.65% of entrepreneurs from the population of Indonesia. This amount is still very small, compared to neighbouring countries, Singapore has 7.2% businessman, 11% Japan, 10% China and Malaysia 3%, especially when compared with developed countries, such as United States, the number of entrepreneurs has reached 11.5 %. To make young people aware of the importance of creating their own jobs to increase income and family welfare, entrepreneurship training needs to be done. The target of this training is young people in the kevikepan West Surabaya, who come from various universities and members of the organization of the Catholic Students Union of Indonesia (PMKRI) St Lucas Surabaya. The training aims to make students more entrepreneurial mindset, to understand the selection of the right type of business, to understand how to start a business and understand the tips of entrepreneurship. After delivering training and sharing materials from a business actor, the event is continued with Focus Group Discussion (FGD). From the results of the discussion it can be concluded that the majority of young people have the intention to entrepreneurship after they finish college, especially in their respective areas as an effort to develop the economy of the region of origin and reduce dependence on the effort 'to seek work after graduation'. Nevertheless, the discussion also implied concerns about the obstacles that will be faced in business development, especially in the field of capital and business network development. In addition, other constraints are also related to financial access, lack of expertise, knowledge, information and technology.
