Abstract

This article discusses the home industry of blacksmith crafts which is a form of community business that can be empowered by the government. The aim is to find out and explain the role of the Kampar Regency Government in empowering blacksmith crafts. The collection of data and information is done through observation, interviews and documentation with qualitative data analysis methods. The results of the study prove that the role of the government in fostering the home industry of blacksmiths is as a coordinator by issuing various policies, as a facilitator (coordination, synchronization, and control), stimulator (integrating investment programs), and as mediator (intermediary) that cooperates with other business actors in the form of providing raw materials and marketing the handicrafts. The conclusion of this study is that the government plays a role in fostering blacksmiths as a policymaking coordinator, as a facilitator for business and environmental development, and as a stimulator by opening up investment opportunities for companies.
