Finally, you will present suggestions for how you might alter the model, backed by your analysis, and how you will research issues to determine the optimal BMC.  Where possible, please conduct interviews with potential customers or partners as part of your research.  Your canvas analysis and conclusions must be supported with facts and with relevant information, insights and concepts drawn from course readings and outside research.  Note – this is not a project that you will be able to complete at the last minute.
