Startup Killers: A Venture Murder Mystery

Join us for a "how"-dunnit venture murder mystery where the culprit is always the same - the founder! The real puzzle is figuring out exactly how each startup met its demise (and learning which of these mistakes you're making in your own startup).

With so many ways a venture can go wrong, can you crack the case in time to save your own?

What to Expect: Developed by The Product Bus, and hosted with MLAI, Startup Killers is an interactive workshop that brings 12 exaggerated founder archetypes to life, helping you explore the common pitfalls that trap early-stage ventures. You'll discover the consequences of these missteps and learn practical strategies to avoid them in your own startup journey.

Your Hosts: Scotty Allen, Founder and CEO of The Product Bus, will guide you through this engaging experience designed to help founders and startup teams spot potential risks and blind spots - while having plenty of laughs along the way.


Dr Sam Donegan, leader at MLAI will provide some real-life examples of how these archetypes slowly eroded promising startups and how to catch them early.

Who Should Attend: Founders, Startup Teams, Startup Advisors, Prospective Founders

  • 5:00 PM - Networking with drinks

  • 5:30 PM - Mystery solving begins - come ready to discuss, reflect, and share insights

  • 7:00 PM - Formal session wraps up - stay for pizza!
