The fourth column is about the Market, channels, and Production. Try to understand how the product is perceived in the market, how you are going to distribute it, and how you are going to produce it.
The fifth column is about Enablers, drivers, and Ecosystems. Think about the difference between your product against others and how your ecosystem is going to support this product,
The sixth column is about Data, uniqueness, and benchmark. What are the metrics you are measuring, what is the differentiator, and who are your competitors?
