Abstract

Economic growth is an important indicator that reflects the progress of the development of a region. Investment and technology are important factors in economic growth. This study aims to analyze the influence of investment and technology on economic growth in Sulawesi. The data analysis in this study uses multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS software version 27. The results of the study partially show that Domestic Investment (DI) does not have a significant effect on economic growth. This is due to the inequality in the distribution of economic benefits, the lack of development of the downstream sector, the low absorption of local labor, and infrastructure constraints. Foreign Investment (FDI) has a significant positive impact on economic growth. As foreign investment is focused on strategic sectors such as mining and nickel processing, which provide high added value Technology has a significant negative effect on economic growth. The digital divide in Sulawesi is also one of the factors that affect the negative impact of technology on economic growth, while simultaneously these three variables have a significant effect on economic growth. This means that the combination of domestic investment, foreign capital, and technology has increased productivity, created jobs, and advanced strategic sectors.
