Business Model Canvas Template

This is a set of templates for Alex Osterwalder's Business Model Canvas that can be used for openSAP Course Designing Business Models for the Digital Economy (Edition Q2/2017).

Following template from Alex Osterwalder's Business Model Canvas

It is a tool for quick and fairly easy clarification of business models.

Original canvas is good for showing and analyzing existing businesses, however for startups, I found Ash Maurya's one, a little bit more convenient: http://www.ashmaurya.com/2010/08/businessmodelcanvas/

You might fork this, and use it to analyze your ideas.

For start there are three templates,

  • canvas_1_value_delivery.html
  • canvas_2_value_creation.html
  • canvas_3_value_capturing.html

that correspond to openSAP materials/recommendations as of week 2.

The canvas_complete.html template would be the final result.

Other Templates startup.html which is more along the lines of what Ash Maurya is advising. Use this as a starting point for your analyses. Or use per_bus_model.html if you want to go along with Business Model YOU A One-Page Method for Reinventing Your Career

Just clone/fork this repo or download it as a zip if you want to work offline. Go inside the openSAP_BMI folder and open template.html with your favorite HTML editor.

I have to mention existing online tools as well, ie. online collaborative canvas ( where the real value of the tool resides). I believe HTML way is slightly more convenient when it is about to freeze into a more detailled canvas.

Canvanizer.

Also there is one from Ash Maurya's Spark59: http://leancanvas.com/

And there is one promoted by Steve Blank: https://www.leanlaunchlab.com/

The general idea and html is to be credited to Zeljko Dakic @ https://github.com/desireco/BusinessModelCanvasTemplate.

And we'll give also credit to Piero Blunda @ https://github.com/pieroblunda/business-model-canvas that developed a chrome-extension that you might need to clone/debug/enhance quite a bit in order to produce something.

Enjoy.
