Business Model Innovation Labs (BMI Labs) are experiential spaces that enable students, startups and corporates to design, test and scale innovative business models using the CTIF Global Capsule methodology.
The 6-sided CGC Business Model Innovation Lab™
The hexagonal Business Model Innovation Lab symbolizes a business model. A business model has six dimensions: Value, Users and customers, Competences, Network partners, Value chain functions, Value form; plus a seventh dimension in the middle — the relationships — which holds everything together so that things happen.
The CGC Business Model Innovation Lab™ is suitable for 6 people, and can easily accommodate a few more when necessary.
Space requirements: 5 × 5 meters with a ceiling height of 3 meters.
