Meetup #7: Design Thinking and Business Model Generation
Details
This meetup will be a Crash Course on Business Model Design. We're going to have a great time exploring business model thinking and design using concepts derived from the book, Business Model Generation (BMGEN). Fellow DT:DC Innovator Jeff De Cagna, a member of the BMGEN community, will lead the group through a fast-paced discussion of business model thinking and the Business Model Canvas. This will be followed by a team exercise using the Canvas to develop "paper prototypes" of inventive new business model concepts. We will have all the materials you need on hand, so all you need to bring to the session is your imagination!
