Hey, dear reader!
While Hamburg's summer continues its grey streak, thereās no better way to brighten your week than dropping a big event announcement: we're hosting our first Fuck-up Night on August 20!
We all know that running a startup isnāt all that shiny as portrayed in social media or at glamorous startups conferences. Itās a road filled with many unpredicted bumps. Some of them barely leave any scars while others can profoundly change you.
Join us to hear seasoned founders share the other side of starting a company - failing, crushing, but moving on no matter what.
If you want to look beyond the success fluff and to learn first-hand from the most epic fails, then this event is for you.
Sign up on Luma (spots are limited)!
Speaking of growth, weāre almost 400 people (yay!) š
