Collective value, valuable!
In the project "Collective value, valuable!" we aim to leverage the creation of circular collaborations by developing an accessible guidance path for this purpose. In this trajectory, we work together to form and visualize a collective business model. After all, a real transition to sustainable development is only possible through joint actions between actors and organizations. Therefore, in this project we will work with circular entrepreneurs through design science research to guide them in this process.
The goal of this project is to develop a guidance process and canvas that helps a circular partnership shape and visualize their collective business model.
Establishing a circular value chain requires collaborating with other parties and each actor bringing in a certain set of resources. The goal is to create collective value together. However, most research and supporting tools still focus on the actions of individual sustainable entrepreneurs, with little evidence for business models that focus on collective entrepreneurship. There is a need to develop and visualize collective business models. This research aims to address this through design science research in co-creation with circular entrepreneurs.
