Cocktails & Startup Fails: Female Founder Happy Hour — in San Francisco — Founders Network event

Cocktails & Startup Fails: Female Founder Happy Hour

San Francisco
Free · Guests welcome

Failure is a badge of honor for any startup founder. If you haven't failed, you haven't tried. On April 14th at 5:30pm, join fellow female founders for a night of self-deprecation and debauchery as we share our most momentous startup fails over cocktails and appetizers.

Ground Rules

  • Please come prepared to share a story. If you are not comfortable sharing, join anyway!
  • This is a space to commiserate and share, please be respectful and kind, and appreciate the vulnerability of each speaker.
  • Participation is highly encouraged: This is a welcoming, honest, open group. You will get out of this event what you put into it, so sharing your fail is highly encouraged, but not required!
  • Females only please: Sometimes it is easier to be open around women who understand the nuances of being a female CEO.
  • Guests are welcomed and encouraged: Please RSVP any guests via the "tickets" option. The more females who wish to participate, the better!

Agenda

  • 5:30pm-6pm: Arrive, grab food, a cocktail, wine, beer, or non-alcoholic beverage. Collect your nametag and mingle with the group.
  • 6pm-6:05pm: Opening remarks by Female Founder Chair, Ganna Boiko
  • 6:05pm-7:05pm: Failure time. Names of those who wish to share their startup fail will be collected ahead of time, and called on to share. Time will be left for those who decide to participate at the last minute.
  • 7:05pm-7:30pm: Socialize, chat, hopefully laugh a little, those who wish to stay can do so.
