Does Technopark Play a Role in Local 
Economic Development? Case Study in 
Samosir Regency 
 
Agisa Kuntias*, Tanti Novianti, and Anna Fariyanti 
 
Abstract: Local economic development is one of the development policies that is 
considered appropriate and strategic in the context of regional development in 
Indonesia by optimally utilizing local resources. In line with this concept, the 
Government of Samosir Regency established a technopark as a centre for 
innovation based on inland fishery resources to encourage local economic activities 
for the community. The purpose of this study is to examine the strategy of the local 
government of Samosir Regency in developing the local economy through 
technopark based on inland fishery resources. The analytical tool used by the 
Analytical Network Process (ANP) includes analysis of aspects of factors, problems, 
solutions, and alternative strategies. Based on the results of the ANP analysis, the 
collaboration factor is the most influencing factor in strategy development. 
Meanwhile, in the problem aspect, the problem of limited infrastructure, low 
public interest and weak commitment, are the main problems that need to be 
resolved, so that the solution aspect becomes a priority is building trust between 
stakeholders, allocation of financing for infrastructure and socialization of coaching 
programs to the community. The formulation of the main strategy for local 
economic development through the development of technoparks based on the 
results of the ANP analysis is to build multi-stakeholder synergy to support local 
economic development in Samosir Regency.

Introduction 
 
In line with the implementation of regional autonomy and fiscal 
decentralization, the role of local governments in pursuing regional 
competitiveness has become crucial and strategic. An area is very 
important to have competitiveness for several reasons, including; (1) for 
investment, attracting foreign private capital and public capital; (2) for the 
workforce, encouraging a skilled and creative workforce, creating a 
conducive environment and providing for the domestic labour market; (3) 
for technology, attracting innovation activities and knowledge transfer 
(Awan et al., 2021; Sabirov, 2021; Song et al., 2021). Therefore, regional 
competitiveness is the key to increasing the national economic growth rate, 
thus requiring special attention to create a good investment climate 
nationally (Kiseľáková et al., 2019; Wilson, 2019).

In addition, efforts to increase regional competitiveness can be carried out through 
regional economic development by utilizing the potential possessed by each region 
(Rochwulaningsih et al., 2019). Economic development in each region can be interpreted 
as the process of local governments and their communities utilizing some of the existing 
local resources and is expected to increase development (Magdalena & Suhatman, 2020). 
This process elevates the significance of the local economy's growth because it can be 
used to create new opportunities or jobs and foster growth (Ferronato et al., 2019; Khan 
et al., 2020; Schroeder et al., 2018). 
 

In the context of regional development in Indonesia and in anticipation of the free trade 
period, one of the pertinent and strategic development policies is local economic 
development. Local economic development policies are essentially regional development 
policies based on the development of sectors that are the highest priority for economic 
activities in local communities. (Suriyankietkaew & Nimsai, 2021). 
 
The application of local economic development policies that emphasize optimizing local 
resources needs to be implemented in Samosir Regency, especially regarding fishery 
resources. Samosir Regency is one of the 8 (eight) regencies surrounding Lake Toba with 
an area of lake waters of 624.80 km2 of the total area of Lake Toba, which is 110,260 km2, 
so it has great potential in the development of Lake Toba aquaculture. Lake Toba is the 
largest lake in Indonesia and holds enormous fishery resource potential. One of Lake 
Toba's most developed economic activities is the cultivation of tilapia. The economic 
turnover of aquaculture, especially tilapia, can reach up to Rp. 5 trillion per year. The 
tilapia export from Lake Toba also contributes 21% to the Gross Regional Domestic 
Product in the Lake Toba region. It is considered much larger than the contribution of 
other sectors. Based on data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) for 2021, the 
export volume of tilapia in 2020 reached 12.29 thousand tons with an export value of 1.5 
trillion Rupiah. North Sumatra is the most significant contributor to tilapia exports, which 
is around 95%. (Prambadi, 2021).

Based on Figure 1. Samosir Regency is rich in potential natural resources, especially water 
resources, where most of the area is water. The de facto area of Samosir Regency includes 
Samosir Island, which Lake Toba surrounds, plus part of the mainland of Sumatra Island. 
The area is 2,069.05 km2, with a land area of around 1,444.25 km2 (various topography 
and land contours, namely flat, sloping, sloping, and steep). The fishery potential of 
Samosir Regency is huge, but its management is not optimal. For example, the Fish Seed 
Center (BBI), which the Samosir Regency Government established to produce superior 
fish seeds for the cultivating community, can only supply 15 percent of the total fish seed 
needs. In addition, Samosir requires 100,000 fish seeds per day for the needs of fish 
farmers in Samosir, so the needs for fish seeds must be supplied from other areas such as 
Pematang Siantar and Simalungun, and this results in high transportation costs (Sijabat, 
2018). 
 
Based on data from the BPS of Samosir Regency, the role of the Agriculture, Fisheries, 
Livestock, and Forestry Plantations sector in forming Samosir Regency's GRDP reaches 
more than 50%. This finding shows that these sectors are the majority source of income 
that has so far supported the economy of Samosir Regency (LIPI, 2017). Fisheries 
businesses in Samosir Regency are generally still managed as household businesses, both 
aquaculture and fishing activities. According to the Samosir Regency BPS, until 2013, 
aquaculture households in Samosir Regency continued to grow to 362 households 
consisting of 231 fish farming households in ponds and 131 floating net cages (KJA) fish 
farming households. 
 
Recognizing the problem of the lack of supply of fish seed needs, the Samosir Regency 
Government sees the need for a revitalization policy of BBI to maximize BBI production 
and achieve the production target of fish seed needs. The revitalization of BBI Samosir 
requires technological assistance and experts to optimize fish seed production. Based on 
this, the Samosir Regency Government initiated a collaboration with the Indonesian 
Institute of Sciences (LIPI) to revitalize BBI Samosir. Through the LIPI Limnology Research 
Center, a study was conducted on BBI Samosir, and based on the study results; it was 
proposed to build a Technopark Samosir as a centre for research and technology areas in 
the waters of Lake Toba. In addition, Samosir Technopark functions to build an integrated 
fisheries system and form innovation-based industrial clusters in Samosir Regency. 
Technopark Samosir has been operating since 2015, with the initial focus of activities on 
developing fisheries and managing aquatic resources in the Lake Toba area.  
 
Samosir is one of the best practises technoparks because it has produced fish hatchery 
technology with significant results; however, little is known about Samosir technopark. 
Considering that forty percent of Samosir's territory is water, the potential to develop its 
fisheries is enormous. In addition to the exceptional future tourism potential of Samosir, 
the presence of a technopark can promote the expansion of the tourism industry in 
Samosir. (LIPI, 2017) 
 
Previous research that has been carried out includes the study of on the Analysis of 
Bureaucratic Innovation in the Technical Implementation Unit (UPT) of Cimahi Techno 
Park. The results of this study indicate that the Technopark program in Cimahi City

significantly impacts efforts to develop the local economy by forming a telematics 
industrial area and giving birth to new entrepreneurs based on innovation and technology 
(Rokhmat & Paskarina, 2021). Other research related to technoparks in the region, 
including those conducted by (Sudiyatno & Wulandari, 2020), examined education and 
training programs at Technopark Solo, which can improve the knowledge and skills of 
participants consisting of MSME groups and community communities. Meanwhile, 
technoparks in various countries have also been proven to encourage a region's economic 
growth. Seo (2013) shows that the growth of venture companies in Daedeok Innopolis 
(Korea Technopark) significantly impacts the regional economy, and the economic growth 
rate is very high. 
 
Polnaya and Darwanto (2015) conducted subsequent research regarding Local Economic 
Development to Increase Competitiveness in the Creative Economy SMEs of Batik Bakaran 
in Pati, Central Java. This study concludes that based on the Analytical Network Process, 
the Local Economic Development Strategy to increase Competitiveness in Batik Creative 
SMEs, it is necessary to improve the technology aspect and the quality of human resources 
as the main priority for improvement.A Technopark institution requires multi-stakeholder 
collaboration, including local Government, academics, the business sector, community, 
and media, in implementing the Technopark program (Noori et al., 2020) Every 
stakeholder member of the Technopark institution needs to play a role and actively 
participate in optimally creating industrial clusters that can be a driver of competitiveness 
for the local economy of Samosir. Local economic development is an area/location-based 
economic development process carried out through collaboration between the 
Government, the community, and the private sector (“market”) to optimise the use of 
local resources in order to improve the welfare of the community as a whole (Leigh & 
Blakely, 2017) The definition of local economic development in the new paradigm refers 
to the synergistic cooperation between the Government, the community, and the 
“Market”, which is the key to the success of local economic development. Some research 
results also recommend that efforts increase integration, collaboration, coordination, or 
participation as part of the synergistic dimension or factor to support the success of local 
economic development in several countries (Tello, 2011). The novelty of this research is 
to study the Development of Technopark based on water and fisheries resources, where 
one of the potential businesses is in the waters sector; Samosir is one of the areas that is 
quite good in terms of data based on waters and fisheries income. 
 
This research purpose is expected to provide recommendations for policymakers to 
improve the competitiveness of the Samosir Regency and to study about the effectiveness 
of technopark making in the Samosir Area. The objectives of this research include: 1) 
Identify Technopark Development's impact on local economic development in Samosir 
Regency; 2) analyze the form and role of the Multi-stakeholder collaboration in the 
Samosir Technopark institution; and 3) formulate a strategy for developing the local 
economy of Samosir through the development of marine and fishery resource-based 
technoparks.

Research Method 
 

Data collection and processing time were carried out for three months. The types of 
research data are secondary data and primary data. Secondary data were obtained from 
documentary studies in the form of reports on the development of Technopark Samosir, 
development planning documents originating from LIPI as the academic side, and also the 
Samosir Regency Government (LIPI: LIPI Limnology Research Center, Samosir Regency 
Government: Samosir Regency Bappeda, Management Organization Samosir Technopark, 
BPS Samosir). Primary data were obtained from interviews and filling out questionnaires 
through related research informants (Head of Research Center, Researcher involved, 
Head of Bappeda and Manager of Samosir Technopark, Head of Farmer Community and 
Start-up/MSME Actors. The data in this study amounted to 5 people, this is because the 
ANP method only requires a minimum of 2 respondents and is considered an expert in 
their field, and already represents the issues raised (Saaty, 2008). 
 
The sample in this study will be taken by purposive sampling. The sample members were 
selected based on representatives from the Samosir Government, LIPI researchers, 
MSME/Start-up actors, community representatives, and the media. The main objective of 
a purposive sample is to produce a sample that can be logically assumed to be 
representative of the population (Frey, 2022). 
 
This study's data analysis method consists of three stages, namely descriptive analysis, in 
order to determine the impact of technopark development on local economic 
development in Samosir Regency. In addition, the analysis method will be used to analyse 
the multi-stakeholder collaboration in Technopark Samosir, and the stakeholder analysis 
method will be implemented by conducting in-depth interviews with the five involved 
stakeholders. Finally, after getting an overview from the descriptive analysis, to formulate 
a strategy for local economic development through the development of technoparks, the 
ANP (Analytical Network Process) method will be used, by analyzing the assessment 
criteria to obtain a set of measurement standards, to then be used as a tool in comparing 
various alternatives. ANP uses the rater agreement value. Rater Agreement is a measure 
that shows the level of conformity (agreement) of the respondents (R1-Rn) to a problem 
in one cluster (Magfiroh et al., 2020). There are some essential differences between AHP 
and ANP, as well as explaining the advantages of using the ANP method compared to AHP. 
First, the scope of AHP analysis is more limited, while the coverage of ANP is more 
comprehensive than AHP. This explanation is because the model framework structure is 
in the form of a hierarchy in the AHP, while the ANP is in the form of a more varied 
network to reflect problems like the actual situation better. Second, in the hierarchical 
structure of AHP, there are only dependencies between lower and higher levels, while in 
ANP, the network structure also has feedback. Third, with this feedback, alternatives can 
be dependent on criteria, such as on a hierarchy, but can also be dependent on each 
other. A sensitivity analysis will also be carried out to see the priority ranking of the types 
of policies that have been analyzed (Janeš & Begičević Ređep, 2018).

Result and Discussion 
 

Benefits of Technopark in Supporting Local Economic Development 
 
According to Leigh & Blakely (2017), the success of local economic development can be 
seen from several indicators, namely: first, the expansion of opportunities for small 
communities in employment and business opportunities; second, the expansion for the 
community to increase income; third, the empowerment of micro and small business 
institutions in the production and marketing process; and fourth, institutional 
empowerment of partnership networks between the government, the private sector, and 
local communities. (Saragih, 2019) says that the LED strategy has two main objectives. 
The first is the increase in people's income, and the second is the expansion of local job 
opportunities (enhancement of people's income and local job opportunities). 
 
Expanding opportunities for small communities in employment and business 
opportunities 
 
BBI, which was initially unable to produce fish seeds optimally when it was revitalized into 
a technopark, has provided most of the needs for fish seeds in Samosir Regency. The 
community of fishery business groups is now able to buy fish seeds of relatively good 
quality. 
 

 
 

Figure 2 Growth of Fish Seed Production at BBI Samosir in 2012-2019

As a direct impact of the availability of fish seeds is the emergence of business groups for 
fish cultivators (nursing and rearing) fish, fish processing food businesses, and service 
businesses providing supporting facilities and infrastructure in Samosir Regency with 
direct guidance from the government and academics. Number of business fields were 
fostered through the technopark program. 
 
The increasing number of business fields and employment is expected to improve the 
community's welfare. For example, one indicator to see the welfare in a region is to look 
at the rate of growth of the value of the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) Per 
Capita. Boediono (1985) states that economic growth is also related to increased output 
per Capita. In table 2, it can be seen the increase in the value of GRDP per Capita in 
Samosir Regency from 2014 to 2019; in Figure 3, the graph it can be seen the trend of 
increasing the value of GRDP from year to year.

was also an increase. Samosir Regency's per capita GRDP at constant prices in 2018 
reached 23.30 million rupiahs. Average growth of 5.0 percent in the last five years (BPS 
Samosir Regency, 2020). 
 
Expansion for Communities to Increase Income 
 
Based on the results of research on the fish breeding process in Samosir, To increase the 
income of the Samosir community in the fisheries sector, academics suggested to the local 
government that the government change the Regional Regulation (Perda) on the sale of 
fish seeds which initially, fish farmers were only allowed to sell seeds with a size of 9- 12 
cm for Rp. 250 per head. After further FGDs were carried out between academics, 
government, and fish farming groups in Samosir, a new regulation was made in the 
Regional Regulation that farmers may sell fish seeds of 3 (three) sizes, namely 2-3 cm (Rp. 
100/head), 3 -5 cm (Rp. 200/head) and 5-7 cm (Rp. 300/head). This finding impacts the 
addition of fish farming business segmentation so that the velocity of money in fish seed 
sales transactions is fast. Communities involved in fishing also increase because of more 
significant and faster profits. This condition also causes market demand for fish seeds to 
be fulfilled more quickly. 
 
Empowerment of Micro and Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the Production 
and Marketing Process as well as partnership networks between the government, 
private sector, and local communities. 
 
The empowerment of MSMEs is carried out with guidance related to PIRT (Home Industry 
Company) licensing. This finding impacts the marketing process with a broader reach in 
one district. In 2017 processed agricultural products that have received a PIRT number 
are only 1 product. With the guidance from BP POM and the North Sumatra Provincial 
MUI, in collaboration with the Samosir Technopark and the Samosir Regency Manpower, 
Cooperative, and UMKM Office, in 2018, the PIRT permit increased to 8 processed 
products. Then in 2019, the PIRT permits increased to 30 MSME products. 
 
Meanwhile, on indicators of the cooperation network that has been built, partnerships 
have been carried out with local Universities and Fisheries Vocational Schools. Several 
collaborated universities include Medan State University, Agricultural Vocational High 
School, Nomensen University, and North Sumatra University. Until now, the Technopark 
Samsosir model has several tools for relatively complete water quality analysis. It is hoped 
that the Samosir Technopark Model can also open networks with other related 
institutions, in this case significantly increasing collaboration networks with industrial 
groups, local entrepreneurs, hotels, communities, and local media. 
 
Stakeholder Analysis at Technopark Samosir 
 
Harmonization, empowerment, and partnership networks between actors (Government, 
Local Government, business, communities, and universities) are essential principles and 
steps in developing the local economy (Coffey & Polese, 1984; Esteves et al., 2021; Roxas 
et al., 2020; Yasir et al., 2021). A technopark institution requires multi-stakeholder 



Kuntias, Novianti, & Fariyanti

Jurnal Ekonomi & Studi Pembangunan, 2022 | 297 

collaboration, including local Government, academics, business sector, community, and 
media, in implementing the technopark program. This finding is in line with the concept 
of local economic development, which emphasizes the process of area/location-based 
economic development through collaboration between the Government, the community, 
and the private sector (“market”) to optimize the use of local resources to improve the 
welfare of the community as a whole (Blakely, 2002). Therefore, a stakeholder analysis is 
needed to realize a local economic development strategy. 
 
To know the role of each stakeholder, in the Technopark institution, 5 (five) stakeholders 
are involved in the management of Technopark, including the Samosir district 
government, academia, the business sector/MSMEs, the community, and the media. 
According to Schmeer (1999), stakeholders in a process are actors (individuals, groups, or 
institutions) who have an interest in a policy or program that will be or is being 
implemented. Based on the results of analysis, observation, and in-depth interviews, the 
role of each actor in the collaborative management of technoparks can be seen in the 
following table:

Technopark program news 

 
Based on the results of stakeholder identification in table 3, it can be seen that there are 
five stakeholders connected to the technopark institution. For local government actors, 
the role that has been carried out has been exceptionally well carried out, by being the 
driving force, both in terms of initiating technopark development, providing budget, and 
also a facilitator in implementing the technopark program, likewise, in terms of academics 
as a technology provider and community development and training. However, when 
viewed from the side of other actors, namely, the business sector, the community, and 
the media, the roles of the three actors are still passive. In a collaboration forum, the

interaction between actors is essential because it benefits the region in solving local 
problems, formulating regional development, facilitating decision-making, and 
strengthening networks and system innovation. (Supriyadi, 2012). The business sector, in 
this case, startups and MSMEs, is only a technology user. This improvement causes the 
development of startups and SMEs to be slower. Supposedly, the business sector needs 
to be involved in providing input and planning, especially in the technology development 
process. This result is as expressed by Fukuyama (1995). An interactive planning process 
can help generate independent behaviour, mutualistic schemes, and trust as a 'radius of 
trust. 
 
Local forums need to be built as the basis for the collective activities of several community 
members (ABGC) who are bound together and think together to contribute to each other. 
Local forums are small communities responsible for advancing the region and encouraging 
local economic activities. (Supriyadi, 2012). Cooperation with many industries also helps 
create industrial clusters that can significantly assist in developing local economies based 
on regional potential. In addition, from the community side, community leaders and 
leaders need to be actively involved in the management of technoparks so that they can 
attract many people to be active in technopark programs. The media, in this case, is 
expected not only to play a role in reporting on the technopark program, but the emphasis 
on the role of the media is to assist in the marketing process of technopark products. 
 
Strategy Formulation 
 
The strategy formulation in this study will use the ANP method. The ANP method requires 
a decision analysis process by grouping criteria before deciding on a choice from various 
alternatives. The flow of research and grouping that is trying to be built starts from 
mapping the problem, recommending solutions, and developing program strategies. Each 
input variable is sourced from the literature review, results of the FGD, and interview 
process with the respondents. Based on this, the mapping of criteria/sub-criteria or 
alternatives in this study can be seen in the following ANP network. 
 
In implementing problem-solving, ANP relies on existing alternatives and criteria. Saaty 
(2008) also explained the technical analysis of ANP by pairwise comparisons of project 
alternatives and criteria. The preparation of the strategy in this study will use the ANP 
method. The ANP method requires a decision analysis process by grouping criteria before 
deciding on a choice from the various alternatives. Criteria show the problem definition 
in a concrete form and are sometimes considered as goals to be achieved. Analysis of the 
assessment criteria is carried out to obtain a set of measurement standards, to then be 
used to compare various alternatives. Therefore, to obtain a local economic development 
strategy through technopark development, it is necessary to map problems, solutions, 
and alternatives to produce a model that represents the interrelationships between 
criteria/sub-criteria or alternatives so that the selection of the most appropriate strategy 
is obtained. The research flow and groupings that are trying to be built starting from 
mapping the problems, recommending solutions, and program development strategies. 
Each variable input is sourced from literature reviews, FGD results, and in-depth

weighting results. Three supermatrixes are formed: unweighted Supermatrix, weighted 
Supermatrix, and limit Supermatrix. The effect of Supermatrix on research results: 
 
Unweighted Supermatrix: In an unweighted supermatrix, two things can be seen, namely 
whether or not there is an influence interaction between sub-criteria and how significant 
the effect is. The value in the unweighted matrix will be 1 in each cluster. 
 
Weighted Supermatrix: Comparison of the value of the effect of one sub-criteria on other 
sub-criteria in the weighted Supermatrix is not different from the value in the unweighted 
Supermatrix 
 
Limit matrix: The limiting supermatrix cell value is obtained from the exponential results 
of each cell value in the unweighted Supermatrix with each cell value of its own. The value 
on the limiting Supermatrix is the value of the results of ANP processing as the basis for 
determining priority criteria and strategies for local economic development through 
technopark development. 
 
Factors Influencing Local Economic Development Strategy through Technopark 
Development 
 
According to Bangsa (2019), the institutional factor of a Techno Park is one of the keys to 
the success of creating technology-based innovations in the region. According to Sanz in 
Anttiroiko (2004), a Technology Park or Science Park must be managed by a professional 
team. Furthermore, Sanz said that collaboration factors are needed in a technopark to 
create a good and permanent network system between various actors. Based on the 
opinion of the respondents who were processed in the super decision application, each 
factor has a different geometric mean (GMK). Of the three factors, the greatest GMK value 
is the collaboration factor of 0.53961. It identifies that the most influential factor in the 
local economic development strategy through technopark development is the 
collaboration factor between stakeholders. Meanwhile, the HR factor is the second 
priority factor with a GMK value of 0.29696, and the smallest GMK value is the 
institutional factor with a value of 0.16342. The limit of the inconsistency value used in 
this study is a maximum of 0.10. The inconsistency value resulting from the assessment 
data on the factor aspect is 0.00885, so it can be concluded that the assessment process 
is quite consistent. The W value generated from the rater agreement calculation 
mechanism is 0.48, which means that 48% of respondents agree that the collaboration 
factor is a priority factor in the local economic development strategy through the 
development of technoparks in the Samosir Regency. 
 
Problem Aspect Analysis 
 
Based on the results of the ANP analysis on the super decision, the priority problems in 
the local economic development strategy through the development of technoparks on 
the institutional aspect are the problem of infrastructure limitations with a geomean 
value of 0.42857. In the HR aspect, the problem of low public interest in coaching and 
training programs is a priority problem in HR that must be resolved with a geomean value 



Kuntias, Novianti, & Fariyanti 
Does Technopark Play a Role in Local Economic Development? … 

 

 

Jurnal Ekonomi & Studi Pembangunan, 2022 | 301 

of 0.66666. Meanwhile, in collaboration, the problem of weak commitment between 
stakeholders is the main problem, with a geomean value of 0.68334. Collaboration 
between stakeholders is the key to the successful implementation of the program in 
technoparks. According to Bangsa (2019), the stakeholders of a technopark are the 
government (usually local governments), the research community (academics), and the 
business and financial communities. Stakeholders work together to integrate the use and 
utilization of commercial buildings, research facilities, and conference centres into hotels. 
The inconsistency value in the problem selection criteria is 002365, still below 0.1, 
indicating that the respondent's assessment process is relatively consistent. 
 
Solution Aspect Analysis 
 
Based on the data processing that has been carried out, the main priority for institutional 
solutions is the procurement and maintenance of infrastructure according to standards 
and the addition of infrastructure facilities with a geomean value of 0.44862. As for the 
solution for determining the legal basis for technoparks, it ranks second, with a geomean 
value that is not much different, namely 0.40852, and the third is technopark managers 
who are not only filled by the local government but also representatives of relevant 
stakeholders, get a geomean value of 0, 14286. Meanwhile, the main priority for HR 
solutions is the socialization of training and coaching programs that target the needs and 
problems of the community with geomean values of 0,66663. As for the solution for 
recruiting professionals, it ranks second, with a geomean value of 0.33337. In 
collaboration solutions, the main priority is building trust between stakeholders in the 
collaboration process with a geomean value of 0.68344. As for the solution to build a 
communication container, it ranks second, with a geomean value of 0, 19981, and a 
solution for periodic FGD implementation ranks third with a geomean value of 0.11685.

Strategy Priority 
 
Based on Figure 4 The final stage in grouping the ANP network is the selection of local 
economic development strategies through the development of marine and fishery 
resource-based technoparks in the Samosir Regency. The strategy formulation started 
with an analysis of the literature review and the interview process with the respondents. 
Based on the data processing results using the ANP method, the main priority of the 
strategy is to build multi-stakeholder synergy in the success of the technopark program 
to support local economic development in Samosir with a geometric mean value of 
0.46730. These results indicate that the synergy between actors is the key to the success 
of local economic development.  
 
Several studies explain the need for synergies between actor activities and policy 
synergies with the instruments used are resource mobilization, network areas, clusters, 
formal and informal associations, and are community-driven on the concept of local 
economic development (Atkočiūnienė & Vaznonienė, 2019; Iwara & Kilonzo, 2022; 
Nordberg et al., 2020) 
 
The second strategic priority is the search for other legitimate sources of financing to fund 
infrastructure maintenance and the provision of adequate infrastructure with a geometric 
mean value of 0.27718. The third strategic priority is to build the capacity of Technopark 
managers to provide the best training and coaching for the community, to increase social 
capital in the form of trust, and increase public interest in being involved in technopark 
programs with a geometric mean value of 0.16009 This is in line with one of the studies 
which revealed that to build a technopark, capable human resources are needed (Wolniak 
et al., 2019). The fourth priority is strengthening the Samosir Technopark institution with 
a solid legal basis and a Technopark membership structure that accommodates all 
stakeholders. The inconsistency value in the respondent's answer is 0.0160, still below 
0.1, which means that the respondent's answer is consistent. The W value obtained from 
the rater agreement formula calculation is 0.47. Therefore, the respondent's level of 
agreement on the priority strategy is 47 percent. Strengthening institutions based on the 
law will create structural clarity in technoparks, so they can maximize output due to a 
good chain of command (Böyükaslan & Özkara, 2022).

Sensitivity Analysis 
 

 
 

Figure 6 Sensitivity Analysis based on Superdecision App 
 
Sensitivity analysis was carried out using Super Decisions software by changing the weight 
value of the criteria on the tested alternatives. In this test, changing the value of the 
weight of the requirements on the other options tested will affect the results of the actual 
ranking or not. If there is a point where there is a change in ranking/priority, then that 
point is called the critical point of an alternative. From the sensitivity analysis results of 
the sub-criteria, changes in the weight of the sub-criteria will affect the decision 
recommendations. However, the dominant change in weight recommends multi-
stakeholder synergy compared to the legal basis and management capacity. 
 
The primary/critical criterion that gets the highest priority in selecting an alternative Local 
Economic Development Strategy through Aquatic and Fishery Resources-Based 
Technopark Development in Samosir Regency is the criterion of building technopark 
stakeholder synergy with a priority weight value of 0.46730. Sequentially the criteria for 
determining the Local Economic Development Strategy through the Development of 
Aquatic and Fishery Resources-Based Technoparks in Samosir Regency are the search for 
other sources of financing/sponsorship. Moreover, building the capacity of technopark 
managers, the smallest priority weighting is the adjustment of the legal basis in 
establishing the Samosir Technopark. 
 
 

Conclusion 
 

The technopark program supporting local economic development in Samosir Regency, 
including expanding employment, increasing income, increasing welfare, and helping to 



Kuntias, Novianti, & Fariyanti

empower micro, small and medium institutions in Samosir Regency. Constraints currently 
being faced include the development of business units being fostered. Only a few units 
can still run. They are facing problems with capital, infrastructure capacity, and 
infrastructure facilities at technopark business incubation centers that need to be 
improved, hindering startup companies from developing.  
 
Based on the results of the stakeholder analysis, the roles of the three actors, namely the 
business sector, the community, and the media, are still seen as passive in the institutional 
implementation of the technopark program. Based on Analytical Network Process, The 
primary strategy formulation in local economic development through technopark 
includes building multi-stakeholder synergy in the success of the technopark program to 
support Samosir's local economic development. 
 
The policy implication can be inferred based on the mapping of factors, problems, and 
solutions in technopark institutions, as well as stakeholder analysis on the Samosir 
technopark institutional model, the collaboration between stakeholders is a priority that 
must be considered. For example, the Samosir Regency Government needs to actively 
involve the business sector, the community, and the media in designing the technopark 
program and procuring technology for the management of technopark management. The 
synergy between stakeholders is expected to create industrial clusters and value chains 
from Technopark Samosir so that they can significantly assist in developing the local 
economy based on regional potential. 
 
The weakness of this research is the lack of output of the Samosir technopark, for 
example, the lack of value chain analysis because the technopark industry cluster itself 
has not yet been formed. Future research is expected to conduct research on technoparks 
with areas similar to Samosir to improve aquaculture based on technoparks.
