AbstractPurpose: This study aims to increase the understanding of digital platform businesses and business model innovation in two-sided markets. Design/methodology/approach: A new business model canvas tool was created through abductive reasoning and a real-life case study. The case was a unique driving school digital platform that belongs to employee and professional service platforms. Findings: The proposed business model canvas is based on Scholten’s canvas (2016) for platform businesses and complements it by acknowledging changes in people’s values and macro-environmental factors as new elements. Research limitations/implications (if applicable): The study is limited to an exemplary case of a driving school digital platform. However, the results and the novel canvas tool can be applied to innovating business models for digital service platforms in many industries. Originality/value: The novelty of the study is derived from the insights created by the case study and the new tool that helps platform businesses innovate in two-sided markets. see all
