In his remarks, Dr. Faisal praised the hard work of the students and their faculty supervisors in securing places at the national-level event.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not focus solely on the competition. Take advantage of your time at UNSOED to build networks with student entrepreneurs from across Indonesia. Showcase UMSU\u2019s original and innovative products on the national stage, as these connections will help your businesses grow in the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Dr. Faisal also encouraged PUSKIBI, UMSU\u2019s Center for Business Incubation and Innovation, and the students to seize opportunities presented by the upcoming Muhammadiyah Congress by developing creative student products.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must continue to help student innovations and products reach broader markets. Medan will host the upcoming Muhammadiyah Congress, which is expected to attract hundreds of thousands, potentially millions, of visitors. This presents a major opportunity for PUSKIBI and our students to develop processed products and distinctive souvenirs that deliver tangible benefits to the community,\u201d Faisal concluded.![](\"https:\/\/umsu.ac.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/MIL09667-300x200.jpg\")
