Case Studies

Large Scale Companies – Evaluating Business Models – Patagonia

The canvas can be used as a tool to review and analyse the business models of larger enterprises, looking at how the different aspects of their business interrelate. In the case below, Holonomics Education reviewed Patagonia, using the Flourishing Business Canvas to capture key social, environmental and financial aspects of the business model.

For more case studies and examples of the Flourishing Business Canvas in action from Holonomics Education please see their website for a full breakdown of their recent work with the Toolkit.
