DesignSingapore Council’s ‘School of X’ connects communities together to design solutions to the pressing, complex challenges we all face in our everyday lives.However, bringing those brilliant ideas to life can sometimes feel as overwhelming as coming up with those innovative solutions.To help you devise action plans to take your ideas from prototype to reality, the School of X is delighted to offer a short, fast-paced, impact-focused Masterclass to guide you in generating a powerful value proposition, and drilling down into your optimal delivery model.The Masterclass, delivered by globally renowned business innovation expert, Maaike Doyer, will draw upon the Business Model Canvas (BMC) tool, which is designed to help organisations think about how best to capture value from their product or service as well as guide the operationalisation of new concepts.The programme will take innovators through the building blocks of any business endeavour, providing a simple but effective framework that enables agile business modelling and pivoting. The Masterclass has been designed to be accessible to anyone with a good idea they wish to roll out regardless of their business experience - and will culminate in usable business plans in which your designs can be transformed into implementable innovations.Participants can expect the following programme:Thursday April 21 - 8:45 - 17:30We will firstly learn all about the Business Model Canvas (BMC). Beyond learning just the basics, we will understand the power of this tool and learn how to apply it to our ideas. We will also apply design thinking to the business model canvas and learn how to create multiple BMC options for the same concept.In the afternoon, we will analyse your business models on a more advanced level. Specifically, we will discuss how to make your business model stronger, how to apply financials at the BMC level, and how to validate the critical assumptions of your business model.The workshop will be very interactive, with all activities centred around learning by doing.A certificate of participation will be issued to all who have completed the programme.
