Business Model Canvas Workshop
Co-organized by Office of Knowledge Transfer, Entrepreneurship Center and HKUST R and D Corporation Ltd, a lunch and learn webinar will be offered to introduce a crucial tool when starting your own business, namely “Business Model Canvas”. The Business Model Canvas (BMC) is a strategic management tool to quickly and easily define and communicate a business idea or concept. It is a one-page document that works through the fundamental elements of a business venture or product, structuring an idea in a coherent way. We will unpack the what, why and how of the BMC to set up your business blueprint.
