Your template for the ecosystem matrix
Use this ecosystem matrix to map important stakeholders, both internal and external, according to their relevance to your project's success and their willingness to support it.

What is it about
At WhatAVenture, we usually generate a list of important stakeholders at the start of every innovation project. This list can include not only internal stakeholders that are relevant for the execution of the project (e.g., regarding sales, marketing, legal, procurement), promoters, or skeptics, but also external stakeholders (e.g., partners, government, etc.). Together with the team, we place all parties on a matrix according to their willingness/ability to support the project and their relevance to the success of the project.
Who is it for
This template is for corporates or corporate startups, that want to ensure a proper overview of the ecosystem that a project is set within, allowing for better integration and acceptance.
