max: premise of the document: operators can help improving a service
example: shortcodes for SMS services
we called that enablers because it helps provider to make services or tools more successful
nicolas: high level question: where do we want to go ?
examples of successful cases ? or identifying barrier entrepreneurs are facing ?
enablers are only one part
nicolas: star cases are helpful
very hard to identify what works or not
<NicolasC> def business model: http://www.mediawerk.ch/nerve/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/picture-1.png
shwetank: distribution channel is critical
how a service is distributed to users ?
nicolas: value proposition: what kind of service are you delivering
on right: everything related to customers
to whom you sell your apps.
customer relationship: how to you reach your customer
(marketing, etc)
distribution: how you deliver the service
key resources: what you need to do: costs etc
key activities: what need to be done
nicolas: missing star cases
that can be described with this canvas
shwetank: how do we collect data ?
nicolas: good question
how to we idenitfy star cases
nicolas: a star case==a case that reached sustainability
<shwetank> maybe to propose companies to the list, and agree by consensus on which ones to focus as a star case?
nicolas: do we star cases ?
steph: related to technologies ?
nico: not really
... starts from examples of services people succeeded to make sustainable
... ask people on the list

betty: based on itu framework for ict readiness
<betty> Wider mobile networks & cheaper mobile Internet tariff (mobile Web readiness) --> more mobile Web use --> more job offer for entrepreneurs or more knowledge resource for students, but more expense to purchase handsets & air time, more business opportunities for people selling handsets & airtime, more opportunities for mobile web application development (mobile Web impact, case studies) --> more mobile Web programming training (mobile Web readiness capacity),
<betty> more collaboration among researchers, mobile phone industry, policy makers (mobile Web readiness)
