Ecosystem Map

Before you can effectively, repeatedly, and reliably deliver value to your customers through a viable business model, you need to understand the ecosystem you’ll be operating within.

An ecosystem map visually represents a process, flow, or system that highlights relationships in a particular context. This ecosystem map gets you thinking of your key players, the segments, and the relationship flow of value.

This template is great for small groups or startups.

How to use this template:

1. As a team, write down your company/ startup in the circle provided.

2. Then, identify who your key players are and drag them around the circle.

3. Then, identify the sub-categories and drag them to each key player they relate to.

4. Begin to connect the key players and value flow by using the lines provided below.

Take a step back, have a look at your ecosystem map, and keep adding on the go!
