AGDA Business Model Canvas Workshops and Seminars - Save the Dates!

6th August, 2012

Introduction
In June, July and August 2011, the Creative Industries Innovation Centre (CIIC) in conjunction with AGDA and other key industry association partners, delivered a series of intensive business model development workshops to a group of selected high potential companies across creative sectors, nationally.

In September 2012, this program will be delivered by the AGDA in partnership with ASMOSYS and Creative Industries Innovation Centre (CIIC) via a WIIN grant.

The 1-day intensive workshop will enable creative SMEs to access and embed innovative knowledge and training in the use of the Business Model Canvas methodology, as developed by Alexander Osterwalder and Professor Yves Pigneur, in their book, Business Model Generation.

Innovation, creativity and design thinking underpin the use of the Business Model Generation methodology and Canvas, and workshop participants will be able to consider new or different ideas for their businesses.

Workshop Overview
The workshop offers companies the opportunity to develop and test their own Business Model and leave with practical tools and an enhanced understanding of their business strategy.

20 participants in each workshop are coached and supported as they work through key areas of the Canvas: Key Partners, Key Activities, Key Resources, Value Proposition, Customer Relationships, Customer Segments, Channels, Cost Structure and Revenue Streams.

The workshops will be a mix of instruction, interactive discussions and small group activities.

Seminars
An additional seminar will be offered to the wider community which will provide an overview and key components covered within the context of the Canvas:

- Understanding your customer,

- Defining your value proposition,

- Considering the life cycle of your channels to market and

- Securing the right partnerships and alliances.  

Facilitation
The workshop facilitator, Alan Scott, is passionate about working with private companies in the areas of strategic planning, business models, coaching and facilitation. He has over 20 years of experience in this field.

Asmosys was created in 2011 by Alan to fulfil his dream of providing practical business consulting, and focuses on working with businesses or individuals to build internal capability for external excellence. Inside and outside. It is osmosis the Alan Scott way, with recognition of the role systems and business models play in that organisational or personal transformation. These systems incorporate technology, process, people and our own internal systems such as belief, passion and motivation.

As a previous Deloitte Private partner, Alan brings into this engagement his recent experience facilitating the business model workshops for CIIC.
