International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing (IJEV), Vol. 14, No. 6, 2022

Abstract: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia have a significant impact on the economy, contributing 38.3% of GDP in 2022, and so serve as the backbone of the nation. Entrepreneurs' intention to success and their demographic attributes play a crucial role in SMEs' future growth (Delmar and Wiklund, 2008). This paper utilises the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to analyse and propose numerous determinants of attitude (ATT), subjective norms (SN), and perceived behavioural control (PBC) toward success intention among Muslim SMEs. Further, age, education, and gender to model Muslim SMEs' intention to succeed are also analysed. This study contributes to the understanding of entrepreneurs' intention to success and their demographic attributes that may lead to successful SMEs, in particular among Muslim SMEs in Malaysia.
