FuckUp Night with SEMECO
The second SaxoCell Fuckup Night - this time in coop with C4F SEMECO - focused on failures and lessons learned in founding startups in the biotech and medical fields. Three speakers openly shared their personal experiences with setbacks, highlighting the challenges of entrepreneurship, funding, and innovation in a high-stakes industry, while emphasizing resilience and learning from mistakes.
The three courageous speakers were the startup founders Jens Geissler from DiA42 - Gesellschaft für digitale Medizinprodukte mbH, Moritz Middeke from Cancilico and hardware developer Alexander Gürbig from ConnCons who took the stage and shared what most don't: the tough lessons, the unexpected twists, and the “not-so-glorious” moments behind building a business. The stories were raw, honest, inspiring – and yes, sometimes funny or painful. But most of all, they sparked real conversations and valuable insights for everyone in the room.
Let’s keep learning, failing forward, and building strong innovation ecosystems together!
