Patterns for startup business models
Radostina Ruseva · 2015
A large effort in industry and academia in the area of business modeling suggests that the successful commercialization of an innovation strongly depends on its business model. The present article investigates this theory with the goal to find common patterns that can be used to leverage startup resources, and their commercial success in general. For this reason we assessed different business models for software based products and companies. We identified a general business model pattern, and two patterns for software business models in particular. Startup companies can use those patterns to revise their development options prior to product development, and to assess their options.
