FUCKUP NIGHTS TIMIȘOARA - Real stories of failure and courage
Real stories of failure, courage and the lessons that truly matter. A recurring event, open to the public, organised exclusively by ATU Advertising.
Failure, spoken out loud, becomes a lesson.
Fuckup Nights Timișoara is the local chapter of the international Fuckup Nights movement, present in more than 250 cities worldwide. In Timișoara, the event is organised exclusively by ATU Advertising, which has held the local licence since 2017.
At every edition, three speakers (entrepreneurs, corporate professionals, freelancers or creatives) take the stage and talk openly about a real failure in their career or life: what happened, what they learnt and how they moved on.
The format is simple and direct: 10 slides, one true story. No filters, no sales pitches, just vulnerability, honesty and lessons that stay with you.
What an edition looks like
One evening, three stories, a whole community. Each edition is designed as a complete experience, not just a series of talks.
Three speakers, three stories
Speakers from different fields (business, corporate, creative) tell their story of failure in a 10-slide format.
Live moderation
A host guides the evening, asks the awkward questions and keeps the energy in the room high between stories.
Real networking
Before, between and after the stories, guests mingle in a relaxed setting, with no hidden agendas.
Local community
Edition by edition, Fuckup Nights Timișoara is building a community of people who are not afraid to talk openly about mistakes and courage.
Open to the public
Unlike other corporate events, Fuckup Nights Timișoara is open to anyone who wants to come along.
Stories, not pitches
No adverts and no selling from the stage. Just vulnerability, honesty and lessons that stay with you long after the event.
