FuckUp Nights June - Stories about Failure

Welcome to FuckUp Nights Melbourne! We are in Collingwood for the first time in our (nearly) 2 years of existence with a special event held at the beautiful space- The Commons.

Free tickets here: https://funjune.eventbrite.com

We have grown a huge community of people attending our events and we soldier on, showcasing amazing stories of personal, business and project failure and the wisdom and resilience learned from such experiences.

FuckUp Nights is a global movement born in Mexico in 2012 to share public business failure stories with hundreds of people attending each event around the world. Each month speakers will be invited to talk about their FuckUp stories; we’ll learn about their biggest mistakes, what they learned, how they moved on- all whilst sharing invaluable advice along the way.

The speakers will candidly share in 7-10 minutes:

• What their project / business was

• What went wrong / How it affected their personal life / What they learned / What they would do differently.

Speaker 1: Richie Meldrum, Head of Brand & Content at August & Vice Chair, VIC Council at AGDA (Australian Graphic Designers Association)

Speaker 2: Kaylene Langford, Founder at Startup Creative

Speaker 3: Mete Erdogan, Creative Director at Either Either

At the end of each person’s story, you’ll have a chance to ask questions- nothing too cheeky, but feel free to dig around.You’ll hear stories and advice you won’t get elsewhere - and these stories will (hopefully) put you in good stead to not make the same fuckups.

Attendance is free, but we do ask you to register in advance at https://funjune.eventbrite.com

Supported by our partners The Commons, KJR, Young Henrys, General Assembly Melbourne, Inspire9 & Collabosaurus
