Resumo(s)
This work project discusses the development of the impact business Carbon Bridge. Carbon
Bridge has the mission of increasing the sale of biochar by raising awareness for it. While doing
so it is aiding businesses to reduce their emissions with biochar. The project, guided by the
Plan-Do-Check-Act framework, evolved from an initial vision to a multifaceted product which
was further developed using the Lean Business Model Canvas. The final product is a website
that includes an educational blog, a Python-built impact assessment tool, and a marketplace for
biochar. Upon the reflection of this progress, the work extends with a discussion of the value
chain of biochar. It is explored how a niche was found within and in which way the chosen
angle beneficially differs from previous business ideas. To get a clear understanding of the
necessary activities behind the successful functioning of Carbon Bridge, key value-adding
tasks are addressed. Consequently, the question of productive choices in relation to resource
spendings is discussed, with focus on the lean approach.
