Fuckup Nights Paramaribo

We Live Life Without Filters

By Sharing Stories Of Failure

Stories Of Failure
Fuckup Nights Paramaribo is a local chapter of the global movement and event series that shares stories of professional failure. Each month, in events across the globe, we get three to four people to get up in front of a room full of strangers to share their own 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.

We are happy to announce the first edition of Fuckup Nights Paramaribo at Young Professionals Cafe.

Why Do It?

  • We deeply believe in having the difficult conversations as a positive step towards well-being and a less ego-driven world.
  • One learns more from failure than from stories of success.
  • To celebrate trying instead of stigmatizing failure.
  • To live a life with less filters.
  • It’s FUN 🙂
