Glimpses into Maplebloom's Journey.
- Maplebloom has developed the world’s first business canvas for sustainable business models, called the Sustainable Innovation Canvas. Since then, numerous “sustainable” canvases have been inspired by the Sustainable Innovation Canvas, both worldwide and in Sweden.
- Since its inception in 2014, Maplebloom has emphasized the importance of personal growth to optimize impact in society. Maplebloom firmly supports the Inner Development Goals (IDG) initiative. We believe that we cannot innovate and achieve beyond our limiting beliefs. Therefore, acknowledging and transforming limiting beliefs is very essential.
- Prior to Maplebloom, in 2010, Katarina initiated a foundation called Economic Shift. The foundation aimed to inspire companies to shift their focus from profitability to contribution and impact. Unfortunately, the initiative was ahead of its time, with typical responses being, “It sounds great, but it is too naive, and we will never get there.” However, we are now on our way!
