>>> Back to assignments overview

Elements of the Business Canvas

The business model canvas is a great development tool that helps you specify the core elements of a business and operation model. You can also use it for specifying a new organisational model.

These elements typically include:

• Key partners
• Key activities
• Key resources
• Value proposition(s)
• Customer relationships
• Beneficiaries and customers
• Channels
• Cost structure
• Revenue streams

In our context of social innovation, the business model canvas should further include information on: 'Your vision and mission with regard to social innovation (and/or wider sustainable development goals)

• Social and/or environmental impact goals
• Scalability

During the online course we will introduce you step by step to the business model canvas and you will have some opportunities for practicing during the tutored session.

A complete, detailed and elaborated Business Model Canvas is the main outcome of your group work in the local or in the international community labs, on in the virtual teams.
