The Flourishing Startup Method
The Flourishing Startup Method (FSM) is a rigorous approach to regenerative business model design. It describes the scaffolding required to design flourishing business models and calls out core elements missing from current business/startup development, support, curriculum and training.
FSM also describes the next-generation entrepreneurial competencies necessary for flourishing business design and the learning environments required for entrepreneurs to build these competencies.
​
FSM was first published in a white paper entitled “Lean Startup and its Application in the Social Impact Sector” in 2015. Since then, the method has been tested with over 1000 entrepreneurs globally; of course, we have learned a lot!
Join our founder, Ondine Hogeboom, in a live webinar where she will share our latest research insights, lessons learned, and promising approaches to implementing the Flourishing Startup Method and how it benefits entrepreneurs and the enterprises they are designing.
