Sharing stories about
professional failure

A global movement
& event series ⚡️

Join the Ottawa chapter and meet incredible locals and partners that are helping us reduce the stigma of failure in business.

Each event, a handful of brave souls get up in front of a room full of strangers to share their professional fuckup. The stories of the business that crashes and burns, the partnership deal that goes sour, the product that has to be recalled, we tell them all. Learn more at FUN HQ.
