The Open Catalogue of Business Models
The Open Catalogue of Business Models catalogue is intended to be a source of inspiration. It cannot tell you what business models will work in your community, but it can give you ideas and guidance on what might work.
The models give our makerspaces the opportunity to be the primary protagonist in our own story. With issues of funding always becoming the white elephant in the room, this business catalogue provides a better approach for our makerspaces and digital innovation to have a business plan that could aid in financial breakthrough instead of solely depending on external donors. This is very relevant to our members due to the fact that the model highlights the key value proposition that could attract potential donors or payers in sharing our expertise.
This catalogue serves as a key tool for our members to identify opportunities that could engineer potential revenue streams, reduce cost of production, increase innovation, access to resources and potential collaborations that ensure the sustainability of makerspaces in Africa.
