Responsible Business Model Canvas (RBMC)

The Responsible Business Model Canvas (RBMC) is a business modeling tool that incorporates in-depth thinking about the imperatives of sustainable development.

It is the reference for anyone wishing to plan the creation of a business, or more generally a project, while respecting the economic, social and environmental challenges of the 21st century.

This tool was jointly developed by the Chaire de leadership en enseignement sur le développement de l’esprit d’entreprendre et de l’entrepreneuriat and the Chaire de leadership en enseignement sur l’engagement social of the Faculty of Business Administration at Université Laval.
