Turn an existing BMC into a greener, circular and socially responsible model.
AI proposes. Evidence validates. Entrepreneurs decide.
Research decision-support prototype — not a sustainability certification or automated audit.
1 — Conventional Business Model Canvas
Describe the existing model. At least three completed blocks are required; richer input produces a more useful analysis.
2 — Green Blind Spot Scanner
3 — 9 × 3 Transformation Matrix
| BMC Block | Economic | Environmental | Social | Decision |
|---|
4 — Circularity Explorer
Quick Green Wins
Reduce waste, monitor energy, improve sourcing, add measurable targets.
Circular Redesign
Reuse, repair, recovery, end-of-life and circular revenue logic.
Deep Impact Transformation
Revisit value proposition, stakeholders, social value and measurable impact.
Selected pathway: —
5 — Greenwashing Guard & Evidence Gate
6 — Before / After
7 — Green Transformation Passport
8 — Research Protocol
Research question
Can generative AI help young entrepreneurs systematically retrofit conventional business models toward greener, more circular and socially responsible configurations while preserving commercial coherence, entrepreneurial ownership and evidence discipline?
Research gap
Existing literature provides sustainable and circular business-model frameworks, while recent work explores AI-assisted entrepreneurship. BMC2Green AI studies the traceable retrofit process from an existing conventional BMC, with human decisions and explicit evidence gates.
Empirical design
- Retrospective audit of conventional BMCs to measure Green Blind Spots.
- Prospective before/after study using BMC2Green AI.
- If feasible: conventional support vs generic LLM vs BMC2Green AI.
Documented field base
- 500+ projects supported through PEE/4C mechanisms
- 45 startups supported through Souk Ettanmia I–III
- 15 projects through MEDSt@rts
- YADOUM 2026: 30 eco-entrepreneurs produced a GBMC
- Fondation Orange GBMC 2026: 10 participants evaluated
- Fondation Orange GBP 2025: 8 participants; 6 plans submitted/scored
- At least 3 documented Green BMC certification sessions before April 2026
These figures describe the field base. They do not prove the effectiveness of BMC2Green AI.
