In a culture of learning fast and achieving high, failure is a shared experience that often goes unshared. The Engine Accelerator and MIT student-led organization FAIL! are thrilled to host this event on February 15th for an evening of shared stories of personal & professional failure and the valuable lessons learned from setbacks. As the Tough Tech ecosystem tackles massive problems through breakthrough science & engineering, it’s vital to be strong in both our highs and lows to accelerate the path forward, together.
