About this Event

Most founder events serve you the highlight reel. This one doesn't.


On the evening of Thursday 18th June, three founders are stepping up in front of a room of peers to walk through a real mistake they made building their company, and the messy, often unglamorous way they got out of it. No polished origin stories. No "and then we hit hockey stick growth". The actual middle bit that usually gets edited out of the founder narrative.


If you're building a company, or seriously thinking about starting one, you already know that the most useful conversations you ever have are the ones where someone tells you the thing they got wrong, and what they wish they'd done differently. That's the entire premise of the evening.


Two of the three speakers are confirmed: Ewan Dobres and Simon Cornelius. The third we're keeping back as a surprise.


After the talks there's plenty of time to eat, drink, and have proper conversations with the other founders in the room. Expect a relaxed setting in the heart of the City and a crowd that's actually building something.


Spaces are limited. Grab a ticket before they go.
