Failure as part of the Founders' Journey 🔥| FailForward & ALMI 2.0
The founder's path is rarely linear. And neither is the path to capital.
At FailForward × ALMI, we believe the founders who learn to fail well - who can read what's not working, adapt fast, and make sharper decisions under pressure - are the ones worth backing.
This is our second time in Malmö, our second collaboration with ALMI, and we're back because the region is ready to go deeper. Together, we're creating a space where founders, investors, and ecosystem builders have the honest conversation that due diligence rarely captures
