FuckUp Nights Melbourne April

Welcome to FuckUp Nights Melbourne: April edition!
RSVP here: https://buytickets.at/fuckupnightsmelbourne/897595

We're partnering with Social Enterprise Network Victoria (SENVIC) on special collaboration.

Social Enterprise Network Victoria (SENVIC) is a community of over 300 social enterprises across Victoria with over 750 people either in social enterprise or supporters and enablers.

We're a storytelling-focussed gathering acknowledging the mistakes, failures, and fuckup stories that impact our personal lives and professional careers, affecting us as the humans that we are.

FuckUp Nights is a global movement born in Mexico in 2012 and established to help share public failure stories with hundreds of people attending each event around the world. Speakers 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.

At the end of each story, we have a bit of Q&A time where 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 FuckUp's.
