Our slides from the Concept Development Workshop with VicHealth Wed 10 September 2014. Participants, 12 teams, were finalists in the Physical Activity Innovation Challenge. They included representatives from sporting clubs and associations, health and fitness professionals, policy makers, entrepreneurs and change makers. The Concept Development Workshop was the third of a three-part workshop series to build capability in the sector to generate and implement innovative ideas to get Victorians active, and to help applicants for the VicHealth Innovation Challenge to develop their ideas to get the inactive active and reach the hard to reach. Participants were led through the development of a Business Model Canvas for their concept. Learn more about the VicHealth Innovation Challenge here: http://challenge.vichealth.vic.gov.au/

Start with
why
Why are you doing this? What do you believe you can change? What do
you believe you can make different/better/easier? What do you believe is
possible?
of the context 1 What is the current situation? Who does it impact? What is it’s impact on
Build your understanding
people, the planet, the economy? What are the possible causes? Observe.
Listen. Learn. Enquire.
Identify your target
audience
Who are you designing your service or product for? Be specific. Who
believe’s what you believe? It’s not everybody.
Get to know your target
audience
3 Seek to understand their needs and aspirations, what motivates them and
their challenges. Develop user personas and user journeys to provide
valuable insights.
Identify the problem you
are solving
How does your idea help your target audience to get what they need or
what they value? How does it help them to overcome challenges and
barriers?
Prototype and
test ideas
Gain insights into customers’ needs by designing and deploying the
smallest amount of functionality possible (AKA your minimum viable
product/service). Evolve the solution based on insights provided by
engaged early adopters.

17. "Lean Startup" is a system for developing
a business, product or service in the most
efficient way possible to reduce the risk
of failure.
It is an approach that treats all ideas as
having assumptions (or hypotheses) that
must be validated by rapid
experimentation in the marketplace. The
approach relies on scientific
experimentation, iterative product
releases, and customers feedback to
generate validated learning.
18. The key is to identify
assumptions - would
people actually buy or do
this? Not by building the
whole product, but by
building a Minimum
Viable Product (MVP).
The MVP is the most basic
version of your product that
is valuable to your user, that
will enable you to test and
learn.

How would you score yourself so far?
VicHealth is committed to getting people
more active. The more physical activity you
do, the better your health! So, the more
people you can get being active, the more
impressed we’ll be. Need we say more?
We’re offering start-up funding
to kick-start smart ideas. Your
project should be clever,
timely and unique. Use your
imagination and think big!
We will be impressed by
proposals that cater for
everyone, including those that
are less likely to participate.
Will your project be fair,
accessible and inclusive?
We want to invest in ideas
that have the potential to
go from good to great. Will
it be expanded, upscaled
or transferred over time?
VicHealth can give you a kick
start, but your project will
need to stand on its own two
feet in time. Make sure you
think about the long term
business model from the start.
VicHealth plays a team game.
Who have you recruited to your
project team that brings a
unique perspective, are they
social entrepreneurs? Are they
corporate hot shots? Are they
changemakers?
We want to get as many
people talking about your
project as possible - so
whatever you do needs to be
documented in some way that
we can share online (photos
and video are our favourites)!
You must be able to
test your project
within 12 months of
receiving start-up
funding
22. Having a great idea doesn't guarantee success.
A great business idea must also have a great
business model to support and sustain it.

36. The Business
Model Canvas
A shared language for describing, visualizing,
assessing, and changing business models
37. The Business Model Canvas is a tool for
you to design, analyse, test and describe
your business model and how your
organisation intends to create, deliver,
and capture value in a profitable way.

41. Why use Business Model Canvas?
Fundamentally, it delivers three things:
1. Focus: Stripping away the 40+ pages of ‘stuff’ in a traditional business
plan, it can help to clarify and focus on what’s driving the business (and
what’s non-core and getting in the way).
2. Flexibility: It’s a lot easier to tweak the model and try things (from a
planning perspective) with something that’s sitting on a single page.
3. Transparency: Your team will have a much easier time understanding
your business model and be much more likely to buy in to your vision
when it’s laid out on a single page.

150. The Cost Structure describes all costs
incurred to operate a business model.
151. Cost Structures
Naturally enough, costs should be minimized in every
business model. But low Cost Structures are more important
to some business models than to others. Therefore it can be
useful to distinguish between two broad classes of business
model Cost Structures: cost-driven and value-driven (many
business models fall in between these two extremes):
1. Cost driven
