Conscious Business Canvas: Our Stakeholders

C Cheri Public Seen by 369

List all of our stakeholders - everyone/everything that stands to be impacted negatively or positively, e.g., supply chain, customers, vendors, investors, environment (town/community, the planet), etc (how are you relating with them and why). Please identify businesses and government entities that will significantly benefit from our services -- we want to be able to go to them for both input as well as funding.

  1. Community members, citizen who need and use technology to support their lives
  2. People working in the technology sector (suppliers of technology, developers, designers.)
  3. * Angel investors and VC - who may invest in innovative technology
  4. Colleges and universities - who educate and train the workforce
  5. * Business and industry who need technology experts
  6. * Chamber and Economic Development - those looking to grow our economy sustainably
  7. Non-profits who work to uplift people and those they serve
  8. * Government looking for innovative solutions to community problems and needs
  9. * Healthcare industry - looking for technology to support cost-effective healthcare and wellness

*Those that are starred are potential funders. It would be valuable to set up the freelance cooperative in such a way that "sponsors" give at a particular level every year and that grants them something that non-sponsors don't have access to. It might be valuable to do some interviews with key folks in each of these areas to find out what would be valuable. What could we offer that would give them a competitive edge worth paying for?
