Judul: Strategi dan Kelayakan Pengembangan Lembaga Intermediasi untuk Meningkatkan Daya Saing Usaha Kecil dan Menengah di Indonesia (Studi Kasus Balai Inkubator Teknologi di Puspiptek Serpong), Strategy and Feasibility of Developing Intermediary Institutions to Enhance Competitiveness of Small and Medium Enterprises in Indonesia (Case Studies in Technology Incubator Center at Puspitek Serpong)
Abstrak: Looking at the rapid growth of the development of global business environment, so the establishment of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) which has highly competitiveness is necessary conducted. One of the several important factors that influence the building of the SMEs mentioned above is the ability of innovation and technological capabilities. It is known that SMEs in Indonesia have weakness in acquiring the latest technology. One of the reason why the SMEs do not have the updated technology, is because they do not have the access to the Research and Development (R&D) Institutions which create the updated and the appropriate technology. In this instance, the SMEs is solely as the users of technology. In this concept of innovation systems, it is attempted an institution which has its role and function, as an intermediate actor between the R & D institutions and the SMEs. This intermediary institution, it is called Lembaga Intermediasi (LI). Based on reports of many research articles, nowadays, most of LI has not yet been able to carry out its role and functions optimally. For this reason, this research is conducted to view the performance one of the LI. This research is a case study, and has chosen one LI on purpose, that is the Technology Incubator Center (BIT) at Puspitek Serpong. The purpose of this study are (1) to identify the characteristic and conditions of BIT, (2) to identify the factors that influence the successes of BIT as LI, (3) to formulate a strategy and feasibility of developing BIT. Matrix IFE, EFE,IE, SWOT and QSPM are used for processing and data analyses in this research. The results of this study are as follow: The characteristic of BIT is one of several unit departments under guidance of Agency for The Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT). BIT is led by a head of department, and its organization form is adopted single structure. Factors that influenced the successes of BIT performance are the number of human resources, fund availability and financial services, infrastructure, networking, appropriate services and serious/strong commitment for tutoring and helping tenants (SMEs). Based on analysis of functional feasibility, BIT has fulfill the requirement as a good organization, as an intermediary institution and as a business incubator. Based on the determination of QSPM matrix, there are three main strategies to be implemented to BIT are: (1) To increase the utilization and the use of existing human resources to enlarge the number and to enhance the competitiveness of assisted SMEs, (2) To maintain and to enhance the quality and the quantity of technology services for SMEs assisted, via utilization technology produced by R & D institutions, (3) To maintain and to enhance the quality and the quantity of market access services to acquire bigger share of market potential (domestic and international) for assisted SMEs's products.

Judul: Efektivitas Pengelolaan Kelembagaan di Tiga Inkubator Bisnis dan Teknologi.
Abstrak: Usaha Mikro, Kecil danMenengah (UMKM) berperan dalam mempercepat pemerataan pertumbuhan ekonomi dengan menyediakan lapangan usaha dan lapangan kerja, meningkatan pendapatan masyarakat, serta meningkatkan perolehan devisa dan memperkokoh struktur ekonomi nasional. Seiring dengan perkembangan lingkungan bisnis menuntut pergeseran kemampuan UMKM yang tanggap menyiasati perubahan permintaan pasar serta perkembangan teknologi. Inkubator merupakan lembaga yang memberikan layanan dan insentif untuk meningkatkan daya saing UKM. Pengelolaan inkubator yang efektif dan efisien perlu didukung dengan faktor pengelolaan inkubator yang sesuai. Penelitian ini bertujuan (1) Mengidentifikasi praktek pengelolaan inkubator di Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI), Bandung Techno Park dan Solo Techno Park, (2) Mengidentifikasi faktor pengelolaan inkubator dan penetapan prioritas faktor pengelolaan inkubator, dan (3) Melakukan perbandingan efektivitas pengelolaan inkubator di LIPI, Bandung Techno Park dan Solo Techno Park. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Cibinong, Bandung dan Solo pada Bulan Juli hingga November 2016. Data yang digunakan berupa data primer dan sekunder. Data primer diperoleh melalui kuesioner dan wawancara terhadap beberapa narasumber dan pihak-pihak yang terkait. Sedangkan data sekunder dikumpulkan melalui studi pustaka. Teknik pengambilan contoh dilakukan dengan purposive sampling. Jumlah contoh dalam penelitian ini 16 pakar. Pengolahan dan analisis data melalui studi literatur, wawancara mendalam, penilaian profil inkubator, Analisis Komponen Utama (AKU) dan Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Hasil penelitian merumuskan faktor-faktor kunci dalam pengelolaan inkubator secara berurutan dari kriteria sumber daya, layanan jasa, sistem seleksi, strategi, tujuan dan manajemen. LIPI unggul di kriteria Layanan Jasa dan sistem seleksi, sedangkan Solo Techno Park dan Bandung Techno Park kuat di Tujuan dan Manajemen; Strategi dan sumber daya. LIPI lemah pada tujuan dan manajemen, sedangkan Solo Techno Park lemah pada strategi dan sistem seleksi, serta Bandung Techno Park lemah pada sistem seleksi. Kriteria tujuan dan manajemen memberikan pengaruh kuat sebagai faktor yang mendorong perbaikan dalam pengelolaan inkubator sedangkan kriteria layanan jasa, merupakan faktor yang memberikan pengaruh lemah; Dalam penetapan tingkat prioritas pengelolaan inkubator. Pusat Inovasi dan Solo Techno Park menitikberatkan pada aktivitas strategi, tujuan dan manajemen, Hal berbeda ditemukan pada Bandung Techno Park, pengelolaan inkubator dititikberatkan pada kriteria strategi dan layanan jasa; Berdasarkan analisis efektivitas pengelolaan, Bandung Techno Park melakukan pengelolaan inkubator secara efektif, sedangkan Pusat Inovasi dan Solo Techno Park belum melakukan pengelolaan yang efektif.

Judul: Studi Taksonomi Katak Subgenus Papurana (Lesson, 1831) dari Halmahera (Anura, Ranidae, Hylarana), Studi Taksonomi Katak Subgenus Papurana (Lesson, 1831) dari Halmahera (Anura, Ranidae, Hylarana
Abstrak: I reevaluated taxonomic of subgenus Papurana position from Halmahera based on morphological and molecular analyses. My results show that two separate species occur on the Halmahera Island, each nested within two distinct clades (hereafter papua clade and celebensis clade), one of which corresponds to H. moluccana (celebensis clade) and the other to an unidentified species (papua clade). By p-distance ranging from 6.9 to 11.5% on the 16S rRNA gene, the unidentified species (Hylarana sp.) is genetically different from all congeners of the papua clade. The Hylarana sp. can be distinguished from all congeners by following combination of charactes: vomer teeth in two oblique rows with narrow inter-vomer distance; snout rounded dorsally; dorsum with few scattered cone-shaped tubercles that are black with white tips; distinct skin folds (ridges) on the dorsal side of the thigh coinciding with dark brown cross bars; a marbled pattern on the ventral side of the thigh and yellowish groin. I also present new data for H. daemeli, H. volkerjane, and H. arfaki from the western region of Papua. Furthermore, I found that H. celebensis has numerous mtDNA lineages, indicating cryptic diversity within the celebensis clade. The discovery of two separate species on Halmahera necessitates more research into the biogeographic history of Hylarana in Northern Moluccas.
