Mid of 2008 I was present at the kickoff in Amsterdam of a new book around Business Model Innovation. Together with Gert Steens, Patrick van der Pijl, and Mick Walvisch the first step on a new book from Alexander Osterwalder and Yves Pigneur was set.
Without going into all detailed steps Alex has made since then I would like to point you to a great initiative.
Alex has started together with Patrick: the Business Model Innovation Hub. The Hub is used as a community which not only reviews the chunks of the book as they come out. It mainly is a place where people with a strong common interest on Business Models meet. Therefore, besides the good stuff Alex produces, a lot interesting content is created by the community itself. Just to tickle your brains a bit:
- Deliberately unsustaining Business Models
- Tools for Business Model Innovation
- Open source licensing
- Business Model Patterns
- …
Just have a look at the presentation and see you at the Hub!
