Incorruptible: A Conversation with Eric Ries at STATION DC

​STATION DC is proud to host an evening with Eric Ries to celebrate the release of his new book, Incorruptible — an unflinching look at how incentives, systems, and human behavior shape outcomes in ways we don’t always see, but feel every day.

​Incorruptible explores a simple but powerful idea: most failures aren’t because of bad people — they’re the result of misaligned systems. And if you want better outcomes, you have to redesign the system.

​We’ll kick things off with a fireside chat between Eric Ries and Ari Shapiro (of NPR), unpacking the ideas behind the book and what they mean for leaders, builders, and anyone operating inside complex institutions.

​Afterward, we’ll open things up for a happy hour reception and book signing — bringing together founders, operators, policymakers, and curious minds across DC for conversation, connection, and a deeper look at how the world actually works.

​Join us for drinks, thoughtful dialogue, and a room full of ambitious, like-minded people.
