Cultivate Lancaster Entrepreneurs Forum #8: Fail So Good

Thursday, July 25, 2019 | Zoetropolis cinema stillhouse


For most emerging businesses, failure at some stage is inevitable. Maybe it's the result of an uninformed decision, or one that was made in haste. Or perhaps it's some unforeseen force that couldn't have been avoided no matter how prepared you and your business plan were. Whatever the means, the ends remains the same – you took a risk, and you got burned.

But as so many successful entrepreneurs will tell you, the failure experience has the potential to be the very game-changer that's needed to get you on the path towards achieving success of your own. At Cultivate Lancaster's Fail So Good event, you'll enjoy a unique opportunity to hear local entrepreneurs & community leaders share all the gritty details of the missteps, stumbles, & face-plants that helped them get to where they are today – from recounting why they failed to the lessons they learned as they pivoted, persevered, or just plain-old started over...
