Please join us for a very special DrupalACT meetup on November 9, where we'll have a panel discussion on failure.

We'll be talking about different types of risk, tolerance towards experimentation, and if we should be embracing and even rewarding failure, with perspectives from both the public and private sector.

Of course this isn't a Drupal-specific topic, but we'll be looking for panellists who come from a Drupal background and generally our discussion will be about risk and failure on Drupal and related projects.

Our hope is that by the end of the discussion, panellists and attendees alike will have new ideas to take back to their internal teams and clients about whether failure is a necessary and healthy part of innovation, and what should be done to encourage or avoid it.

We also want to explore how these perspectives appear to people from less well represented backgrounds: Do these people feel their risk and failures are as tolerated or celebrated as those of their colleagues?

Food and drinks will be provided. Please be sure to let us know at least a week in advance if you have any special dietary requirements and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

Special thanks for Annex and Ironstar for sponsoring this event.
