Fuckup Nights Florence Vol. XXXVII English edition Vol. III

We are proud to present the third English edition of Fuckup Nights Florence. Three new failure stories shared in English by three courageous speakers in a new location, Nana Bianca, part of the Florentine innovation ecosystem. We are ready to bring together both the Florentine community and the wider international English-speaking crowd, with some partners that will involve their communities and the precious media partnership of The Florentine.

Our speakers will open up about one of their setbacks—whether professional, social, artistic, or personal—and the new beginnings that followed. Through an evening full of emotions and valuable lessons, they’ll remind us that mistakes are an essential part of growth and a powerful driver of innovation and change.

The evening has been organized by Laura De Benedetto, Chapter Leader of Fuckup Nights Florence, and will be hosted by Cristina Salvatori, Teacher Trainer and Academic Quality Advisor.
