In partnership with the Alliance for Innovation and Transformation (AFIT), the Student Experience Lab is designing and testing new models and next practices for community colleges. These models will address current challenges facing community colleges in order to transform student outcomes and create sustainable higher ed institutions.

Check out this webinar featuring BIF's Cheif Market Maker Eli MacLaren and Student Experience Lab Manager Jessica Brown as they unpack the business model imperative for education, BIF's design methodology, and a real-world case study.

Bestselling author Dan Pink stops by to discuss his newest book "When: The Science of Timing" which takes an in-depth look at how and why we should all be paying closer attention to the ways in which timing can have a deliberate effect on the way we work, think, and live. 

If a business model is a network of capabilities woven together into a sustainable financial model, a system is a network of business models that have learned to collaborate. Until organizations learn how to do this, integration in our education system won’t work, and innovations that fundamentally transform outcomes will remain localized and dispersed

The time has come to be a market maker, not a share taker. Business model innovation must be a strategic imperative for all organizations. BIF is releasing a deep dive into our Design Methodology for Next Practices and New Business Models with our 22 step Playbook complete with guides and tools.

The first in a series of blog posts focused on how we’red our labs that are considering how we put DEI at the core of business model design. We invite you to join these conversations, and to explore how putting DEI at the core of your business model exploration can surface opportunities for transformation.
