VentureB Innovation Series

Strategies for Creating Bill of Materials (BOM)

The VentureB Innovation Series focuses on providing startups with hands-on educational training. The topics in this series will help start-ups effectively grow their business by gaining tangible experience in 90 minute workshops.

For this VentureB Innovation Workshop, you will be exposed to why building a Bill of Material is just as much a strategy as it is a supply chain function. You will learn basic BOM structures, terminology, how it relates to the Business Model Canvas, a hand on exercise, and tools of the trade.

Cost to Attend: $30

Lunch is included!
