Ecosystem Mapping

1 hour

Any social innovation grows into an ecosystem of similar and related services or products on offer. Mapping the players within an ecosystem is similar to mapping the flora, fauna, soil, and climate in an ecosystem. Introducing a new idea without understanding the context of the social ecosystem is risky. We can avoid this risk.
