Fuckup Nights is a global movement and event series 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. The Fuckup Nights community in Madrid was born in 2014 and currently has + 1500 members, in our by-monthly events we welcome an average of 70 attendees.

For this event, we have the pleasure to host Pepe Villatoro, Co-Founder of Fuckup Nights to have a chat about failure, about creating healthy working environments in startups and also go through his experience in scaling organizations worldwide.
