15 Moving from a problem- to a systemic solutionoriented approach in mobility Policy and infrastructure solution Sweet spots Product and business model solution Lifestyle hotspots Mobility Integrated multimodal transportation systems ICT enabled car sharing Financial instruments for the rush hour Potential cost and time savings Renewable-energy powered car Smart grid ICT enabled prosumers of renewable energy Zero plus homes: positive energy houses that use surplus for mobiliyt Increased health Slide 15

16 Using the UN Sustainable Development Goals A wholistic assement provides for an evaluation of the effects Positive contributions via hand-prints (green lines) or the reduction of negative effects via footprints (organge lines) Slide 16

17 How can business innovations contribute to the SDGs while adding value to consumers? SDG-based framework to connect business and sustainable lifestyles Two possible angles: from products to lifestyles or from lifestyles to products Social progress Individual wellbeing Handprint & Footprint SDG criteria for Sustainable Lifestyles Ecosystem protection Resource use CO 2 emissions Water & Waste Slide 17

18 What is a business model? The building blocks Business model: A business model describes the rationale of how an organisation creates, delivers, and captures value Customer segments Customer relationships Key activities 9 building blocks of business models Value proposition Channels Revenue streams Key resources Key partnerships Cost structure Source: Osterwalder and Pigneur (2010). Business Model Generation. Self-published. Slide 18

19 Business models for sustainable living and consumption Consumers Enabling role of governments, development agencies service providers, and innovation centres Key driving actor for value creation towards sustainable consumption Product design Service & function based offerings Prosumers Consumer choice influencing Collaborative consumption Waste as a resource Business Production Use End-of-life Key focus of efforts in value chain Source: CSCP, CRI, EEA (2014). Reflections and Lessons Learnt from EEA s Work on Innovative Business Models for Sustainable Lifestyles.

20 Practical examples of business models Consumer has important role to play in each of these business models Production of bags from plastic waste: Trashy bag (Ghana) Chemical leasing: UNIDO projects in Egypt, Mexico, Russia, Sri Lanka, Serbia Urban farming: V-roof (China) Promoting fair trade and green products : ECHOstore (Philippines) Car sharing: Easyway (Colombia) Recycling of end-of-life mobile phones: Mazuma (UK) Source: CSCP, CRI, EEA (2014).

22 Rapid ICT developments are enabling and scaling up new innovative business models for sustainable consumption Rapid developments of ICT First (mainstream) smart phone was launched by Apple only 10 years ago! E.g. Industry 4.0, Internet of Things, cloud based solutions Examples of existing ICT products enable more sustainable consumption E-mobility: All leading car manufacturers have developed electronic vehicle models Home office: Increasing flexibility to work from different locations and during travels Energy: Small scale and connected renewable energy systems Future ICT products Workplace: Virtual reality immersion through wearable technology E-health: Social robots, 3D bioprinting Food: Advanced soil and crop monitoring and management devices Challenges to address Data privacy and security for consumers Collection and processing of large volumes and complex e-wastes Issues related to mining operations and conflict minerals Slide 22

23 Key findings Business models for sustainable living and consumption Need to shift business focus from production to consumption From optimising existing production processes towards enabling sustainable consumption Requires multi-disciplinary, multi-stakeholder approaches and long-term commitment ICT and consumers are key enablers for business models for sustainable consumption and living Trend will continue and deepen across sectors Opportunities for leapfrogging resource-intensive consumption developing and transition countries Create international learnings, but need for customised and localised solutions Linking with existing programs (e.g. EU funded SWITCH Asia Program on Sustainable Consumption and Production - Scaling up impacts and business models More focus needed on scaling up impacts through value creation (e.g. longer and shared use of products, product design and substitution, end-of-life) Need to carefully consider success factors for scaling up throughout process Slide 23
