For this event, all proceeds will go to the Yiriman Women social enterprise in the Kimberley.  Every $ raised at this Fuckup Night will be a massive shot in the arm for these women, who are building a business model that brings their kids back on Country, and shares their cultural knowledge, and bushcraft and medicine with their young people before it disappears forever.  Impact Seed has been working with the women over the past 18 months and we are thrilled to be supporting this project and its lasting inter-generational impact on Aboriginal people in the Kimberley.

Fuckup Nights Volume 4 is brought to you by:


 
 
Why Fuckup Nights? Because with #peakstartup, a 90% failure rate, and all the talk of motivation and positivity, there’s something missing.. talking about failure, and learning from sharing stories of failure! Free your failures, Perth will thank you! 
 
HOW IS IT DONE?
In every Fuckup Night 3 speakers tell their failure story explaining: 
What was the project? 
What went wrong? 
What did they learn? 
What would they do differently?
 
Each speaker tells their story in 10 images (~40 seconds per image, ~6mins total) followed by Q&A.
 
At the end of the speakers’ stories, attendees are welcome to stick around and network over drinks.
 
Previous Fuckup Night speakers have varied from social entrepreneurs, tech founders, and even a doctor who a few years ago opened an adult shop that went broke.
 
Just so you get an idea, Fuckup Nights is something between a party and a casual business conference :) 
 

 
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
 
If you're a successful business owner or entrepreneur who has:
 
1) Failed, misjudged, fallen off a cliff or lost and been badly bruised on the career/professional path
2) Created a business success story on some level as a consequence of the learnings from aforementioned fuck up
3) Are willing to share 1+2 under Chatham House rules
4) Are driven by a desire to help others
