The Learn & Grow Talks put leaders on stage to speak openly about mistakes, setbacks and the lessons that actually stuck. A format that takes courage — and gives some back.

Back to where it all started for me: BHAK Wien 10, the school where I did my Matura. In this keynote I show students why failure isn't the end but a beginning — from failure to success.

Who would have thought, there's even a day for us. ❤️

From the school desk to the lecture hall: with this Special Edition we bring Fuckup Nights to Hochschule Campus Wien. In front of students, brave people share their setbacks and detours openly — and how failure is often where a career really begins.

Fuckup Nights have become a fixture in Carinthia. Together with our partners at Kärntner Sparkasse, we're back at the Nexus Hub. 3 speakers. Authentic. Insightful. Great!

In 2014 we started Fuckup Nights in Austria. Today we're an incredible movement. With Vol. 54 we celebrate this anniversary — and everyone who has shared their lessons learned with us since. A special edition for a special occasion. Save the date — and celebrate with us. 🫶

Fuckup Nights Linz is back for round 16! Together with Startrampe Sparkasse Oberösterreich, we bring brave people on stage to talk openly about their failures — and what grew out of them. Honest, personal, surprisingly inspiring.
