Fuckup Nights London #6
Calling everyone interested in the startup space - whether you’re a founder, investor, aspiring entrepreneur or just want to hear from those in the space!
🔥 Who are we?
Fuckup Nights London is the UK’s largest failure-first community, where founders and professionals get together to share their biggest mistakes.
We create a no judgement space, where you can be open and reflective, without the pressure of traditional networking.
Our mission is to get you the lesson without the scar :)
We’ve hosted 5 sold-out events so far, each with 500–1000 registrations, and now we’re bringing you our 6th event on 1st of April!
👋 Meet your host & speakers
Hosted by Saul Truman, a third-time founder who lost $2M in under a year building the next Reddit.
Two fireside chats with incredible speakers:
🎤 Husayn Kassai is the exited co-founder and CEO of Onfido, which he scaled from a £20,000 startup to a $650 million acquisition. He is now the co-founder of Ollo, a workplace AI assistant that connects to existing tools like Slack, Google Drive, and Notion to deliver private, verifiable answers from company data.
🎤 Matt Lerner is the founder of SYSTM, where he helps startups find their biggest growth levers. He spent 15 years in Silicon Valley working for the most important startups you’ve never heard of, before joining the early growth team at PayPal in 2004 and serving as Director of SMB Growth. He previously also served as a Partner at 500 Startups.
💖 What we need from you:
Each attendee agrees to film a short piece of content with Saul based on the screw-up you’ve submitted at the time of registration, in exchange for a free drink of your choice from the bar - this helps us promote future events!
Audience recording isn’t permitted so speakers can share openly. If you aren’t able to attend, fear not - the fireside chats will be recorded and shared on our socials afterwards with the speakers’ consent.
