      <description>1)Start to write down all that you know, including your guesses (= your hypotheses) about each part (box) of your project/business idea.
2)Identify your riskiest assumption. If you have a new project/business idea, you will probably need to start with Box A. Do you genuinely understand your customers´ underlying needs?
3)Start the experiment to derisk your riskiest assumption and to validate your hypotheses.
4)Keep on until all your hypotheses are validated and you have either found a sound project/ business model, pivot, or concluded that you better do something else.  </description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Our business has a cost-driven nature given the extensive outsourcing of digital marketing and logistics. The most important cost inherent in our business model is our third-party logistics (3PL) because this includes the storage and distribution of our products throughout the country. The enterprise aims to partner with the best 3PL to uphold the quality service and effectively dispatch to different locations.<br><br>Also, some key resources that contribute to our cost are the development and maintenance of our UI/UX online platform in the long run. The business will hire accountants, finance professionals, and operation managers to control our main costs. <br><br><strong>Fixed Costs: </strong>rent, salaries of the personnel, property taxes, marketing<br><br><strong>Variable Costs: </strong>order fulfillment costs for 3PL, UI/UX developers<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>1. Similar Platforms </strong>- We recognize the existence of similar online shopping platforms such as Shopee and Lazada. However, we found that these platforms' bamboo catalogue primarily consist of imported bamboo products with little-to-no reviews. We differentiate ourselves from these platforms by sourcing primarily from local bamboo manufacturers, and by creating reviews for the product portfolio of each partner artisan. <br><br><strong>2. Substitute Products</strong> - We recognize that bamboo products are substitutable with, and are less cost-competitive relative to their plastic and traditional wood counterparts. However, bamboo products are a more environmentally friendly and durable material. By focusing on local bamboo products, we are able to attract customers who value sustainability and durability, and those who want to help grow provincial economies by supporting local bamboo artisans.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Our social enterprise can mitigate humanity's impact on the climate by utilizing engineered bamboo products from provincial artisans. Bamboo is a fast-growing plant, which enables it to capture carbon at a faster rate relative to other materials. The quick maturity of bamboo allows for quicker carbon sequestration relative to other plant materials utilized for production. Mainstreaming bamboo as an engineered bamboo product will contribute towards the growth of a bamboo-intensive industry towards the goal of net-zero emissions.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Our solution is to build an e-platform that connects provincial artisans with people who want to purchase artisanal bamboo products.&nbsp;<br><br>This creates immense value for both parties. Provincial artisans would be able to market their products on our platform, broadening their reach from their immediate communities to major metropolitan centers. For customers, they are able to view the product portfolio of each artisan, and from our customer and self-sourced review, the service is able to ensure that they receive the product with the quality they expect.<br><br>This can be easily scaled up in terms of customer base, as an internet platform is universally accessible to people with an internet connection. This can also be scaled up in terms of artisanal suppliers, as there are numerous skilled artisans for bamboo products across provinces who may desire to broaden the reach of their customer base.&nbsp;<br><br>It makes an impact on provincial artisans because it increases the reach for their products. By broadening their reach, these producers are able to achieve greater levels of recognition for their talent and achieve higher levels of income for their labor. Customers are also impacted by being able to reach provincial artisans from far away, and by being assured that the product which they are purchasing is of a quality they expect. </div>]]></description>
