The presence of foreign entrepreneurs in this region has a significant impact on the development of the local community's tourism business. This research aims to analyze the influence of foreign entrepreneurs on the growth and development of the tourism sector in Kereng Bangkirai. Using qualitative and quantitative approaches, data was collected through surveys, interviews and literature studies.
