“…For instance, Marxan generates limited revenue from consultation fees, while construction of personalized units has funded some aspects of Mataki. Regardless, a business plan highlighting the "customer's" willingness to pay for an innovation (Meertens et al 2014) and its ability to counteract Step 4: test the technological innovation's ability to deliver the desired conservation outcomes This step involves developing a prototype and testing the innovation, then updating the business model as necessary. Following an iterative process similar to adaptive management cycles (Chadès et al 2017) and structured decision making (Gregory et al 2012), the lean start-up literature recommends evaluating prototype performance against the components of the BMC, and revising and improving the business plan (Gelobter 2015).…”

Innovation has the potential to enable conservation science and practice to keep pace with the escalating threats to global biodiversity, but this potential will only be realized if such innovations are designed and developed to fulfill specific needs and solve well‐defined conservation problems. We propose that business‐world strategies for assessing the practicality of innovation can be applied to assess the viability of innovations, such as new technology, for addressing biodiversity conservation challenges. Here, we outline a five‐step, “lean start‐up” based approach for considering conservation innovation from a business‐planning perspective. Then, using three prominent conservation initiatives – Marxan (software), Conservation Drones (technology support), and Mataki (wildlife‐tracking devices) – as case studies, we show how considering proposed initiatives from the perspective of a conceptual business model can support innovative technologies in achieving desired conservation outcomes.

In this paper we propose and demonstrate a software tool for symbiotic human-machine analysis, applicable for structured literature reviews (SLR). We present a seed-based search of bibliographic information, resulting in document clustering and graph visualization. Through a collaborative human-machine effort we show how to detect potential bridging articles and paradigm shifts. The overarching goal is to support the SLR process, especially for developing fields of science, as well as interdisciplinary fields, where similar concepts can be overlooked as they are associated with different keywords and belong to different groups, yet share common ideas. Finally, we demonstrate the application of the tool with two literature search and visualization examples.

“…To create the business cases, we use the Business Model to Business Case method (BM2BC). It is not an extension of BMM, but rather a method that comes after BMM to further quantify and compare business models (Meertens et al, 2013). It is based on the work of Ward et al, (2008), but is tailored to the development of business cases based on business models.…”

Point-Of-Care Testing (POCT) enables clinical tests at or near the patient, with test results that are available instantly or in a very short time frame, to assist caregivers with immediate diagnosis and/or clinical intervention. The goal of POCT is to provide accurate, reliable, fast, and cost-effective information about patient condition. POCT can be part of the solution to the rising healthcare and welfare costs without any loss of healthcare quality. In this research, business models are used to create business cases in order to assess the viability of POCT. Two methods to create business models were designed by tailoring and extending them from an existing method. It was found that the method used has impact on the resulting business case. POCT was assessed to be viable in all business cases created for the specific case study used.
