My Startup Horror Story

​Not every founder story ends with a rocket emoji. Some end in co-founder breakups, cash burn nightmares, and accidental product launches with broken code.

​We’ve all been there. Now we’re talking about it.

​Join us at Startup Horror Story Night — The Delta Campus' Halloween-season community event where brave founders and operators take the mic to share their worst startup mistakes and what they learned from them.

​Think:
💬 Open-mic founder therapy (5–8 min stories, raw and reflective)
🎭 Optional costumes (zombie founder? ghost of your cap table?)
🍷 Post-story drinks & connection with Berlin’s boldest builders
🎁 Best costume wins a Halloween prize

​This isn’t a pitch night. It’s not about perfection. It’s about vulnerability, laughter, and the very real lessons you only learn when things go wrong.

​You’ll hear stories like:
🚨 Shipped the wrong build the night before launch
💸 Raised a round… then ran out of cash
😱 Fired the wrong person or didn’t fire them soon enough
💔 Trusted the wrong co-founder

​Whether you want to speak or just listen, you’re welcome here. Bring a friend, bring a drink, bring your most cringe-worthy startup story.

​Why come?
Because the startup journey is hard. And hearing what others have lived through might just make your next mistake a little less painful and a lot more human.

​📍 Delta Campus, Berlin
This is a community event—free to attend, but RSVP required.

​Because at Delta, we believe the power of proximity isn’t just about networking. It’s about showing up for each other, especially when things go sideways.
