We had a great time last night at our first event of the year, DigiBC F*ckup Nights vol. 4! Huge thanks to our wonderful speakers, James Hursthouse (CSO, AMPD Technologies), Brenda Bailey (Executive Director, DigiBC) and Ed Douglas (Filmmaker & Video Game Developer) for each sharing a fascinating story of professional failure. It was an engaging night with a supportive crowd that got to hear about the challenges our ‘FuckUppers’ faced and how they dealt with adversity. The goal was to learn from each other’s mistakes while supporting entrepreneurial growth… and it seems that people walked away with just that. We’d also like to thank David Doyle (Reveal Events Group) for moderating the event, Cineplex Fifth Avenue Cinemas for sponsoring the venue, and Melissa Dex Guzman for the fantastic photos.
DigiBC has formed a partnership with Reveal Events Group to collaborate on the F*ckup Nights Vancouver series for 2020. The events that we co-sponsor will focus on the creative tech sector, and we are always looking for new speakers to add to our roster. If you’re interested in sharing a failure story then we’d love to hear from you! Please contact team@digibc.org for further details.
