Ugly Talk: Pitch, Share & Survive
You've never been to a mixer like this one.
Forget the highlight reel. Forget the rehearsed pitch and the superhero LinkedIn post. For one night, Miami founders are trading all of that for the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Founders get on stage and share the pivotal moment — the deal that fell through, the product that missed the mark, the investor call that went sideways, the quiet decision to start over, or the messy lesson that changed everything.
7 minutes each. Vulnerable. A little embarrassing. Funnier than you'd expect. Every story is a lesson somebody paid full price for.
You sit back. You laugh. Maybe wince. Then catch yourself nodding. By the time the mixer kicks in, the networking dance is dead. You're just catching up with people you actually want to know.
🎯 Why You Should Attend
Hear the version founders don't usually share on panels. Get the lesson without paying full tuition. Feel the room loosen up — once one person tells the truth, everybody stops auditioning.
🙋 Who's Getting In This Room
Founders actively building. Operators, builders, and startup people who are past the idea stage and making real moves. Miami founders, local startup leaders, and visiting builders who want honest conversations instead of polished networking.
