BlueCity

Trial and error is an integral part of entrepreneurship. With FuckUp nights, BlueCity aims to cater the innovation ecosystem of Rotterdam. It’s where stories of failed businesses are told, questioned, and celebrated. Next up: the Design Edition in collaboration with the Nieuwe Instituut. Join us on Thursday 8 February 2024 to hear honest stories of designers who’ve been there, done that and… epicly failed.Under the riveting moderation of Tara Lewis, four Rotterdam icons from the fields of architecture, fashion and digital culture get 10 minutes each to present their mother of all fuckups. Vulnerable and humorous stories of a business that crashes and burns, a partnership deal that goes sour, a product that had to be recalled: you name it, and someone has fucked it up. What went horribly wrong? And what have they learned from it? After these brave humans shared their story, both moderator and audience get to fire all their questions at them during a rapid Q&amp;A.Success stories are interesting, but let’s face it: the real magic unfolds when blunders spice things up, making someone’s journey both entertaining and inspiring. Let’s laugh together, give the speakers a standing ovation for their bravery and learn from each other’s mistakes.Note: the event is in English The program:19:00 - 19:30 Doors open19:30 - 20:15 Presentations and Q&amp;A20:15 - 20:45 Break with drinks20:45 - 21:30 Presentations and Q&amp;A21:30 - 22:30 Aftertalk &amp; networking SpeakersFour Rotterdam designers will put their egos aside and share some vulnerable and honest insights into a major (design) fuckup and the consequences.
