MY BUSINESS CANVAS

At this step, the participants will start qualifying their business ideas and get more specific about how they will create value, for whom they will create value and which actions they have to take to create that value.

The participants will take the first steps towards a more substantial plan - or a business canvas.

During the boot camp, focus will be on the first three elements in the business canvas model:

1. Value proposition

2. Customer segments

3. Key activities

The other 6 elements in the business canvas model will be included in the follow-up trainings.

The main purpose of this step is to make sure the participants choose a business idea that actually creates value to somebody, who can be customers. Moreover, the purpose is to visualize what activities the participants have to make to create value to the customers.

This training draws on Osterwalder’s business model canvas. It is a simple and illustrative way of designing a new business and it’s simplicity makes it very flexible if the young entrepreneurs need to adjust the idea or come up with something new. Going through the 9 elements is manageable and easy to understand.

The Business Model Canvas is a strategic management and entrepreneurial template for developing new or documenting existing business models. It is a visual chart with elements describing a business’ or product’s value proposition, infrastructure, customers, and finances.
