FAIL! is an idea born at MIT in 2018. During TED-style talk events, successful Professors, CEOs, or other professionals share their failures and how they overcame them. The message is that failure is not something we should hide, it is part of the process while trying to achieve life’s goals, and can inspire others. Sharing stories of failure can help communities, especially those competitive ones (Universities, Companies, Startups etc), creating a more understanding and comfortable environment, and eventually enhancing productivity and creativity.• Recipient of the Sandbox Innovation Program – MIT Innovation Initiative (2018 - 2019)• Recipient of the MindHandHeart Innovation Fund – MIT Innovation Initiative (2018)• Awarded first place at the BetterMIT Student Life Makeathon (2019)• Recipient of the MIT Grad Student Life Grant (2019)• Recipient of the MIT Quality of Life Grant (2019)
