Abstract


The business model is a conceptual image of the operational part of the company. Methods of visualization are used for its formal description. The actual models are arranged into a typological concept that creates the prerequisites for the evaluation and examination of their potential for innovation. The innovation space of the business models has been studied based on an extensive sample of enterprises. The nature of the innovations of the business models, the limits of their innovation space and the tendencies of the development of the innovation space has been identified.
