Create a new Business Model Canvas – Canvanizer

The Business Model Canvas was proposed by Alexander Osterwalder based on his earlier book: Business Model Ontology. It outlines nine segments which form the building blocks for the business model in a nice one-page canvas. You can find a detailed explanation in his bestselling book “Business Model Generation”.

More about the Business Model Canvas
