Failure is a topic we don’t often discuss. Especially in the world of entrepreneurship.
Yet, here’s the truth: failure is not the finish line.
It’s a key part of the entrepreneurial journey, a step towards doing better and growing.
One thing is for sure: There’s no disgrace in it! Ready to start discussing our failures and the wisdom they carry?
Stay alert! Fuckup Nights is coming to Wintercircus Ghent, and we made sure our Collective members are invited.
You can fail, but don't fail to subscribe!
ABOUT FUCKUP NIGHTS
Fuckup Nights is a global community that shares stories of professional failure. Each month, in events across +200 cities and 65 countries, we get a couple of speakers to get up in front of a room full of strangers to share their own professional fuckup. The stories of the business that crashes and burns, the partnership deal that goes sour, the product that has to be recalled, we tell them all.
Get ready to change the narrative!
