Connect@Biopôle: “Fail often to succeed sooner: How to embrace failure as the key for your success!!”

Biopôle is proud to launch "Connect@Biopôle" a new series of events to tackle cutting-edge business, scientific and innovation challenges faced by leading executives in Life Sciences.

Our 1st "Connect@Biopôle" session will be held on April 17th, 17:30 at the Biopôle - Aquatis Hotel, and will focus on how to learn from failure:

FAIL OFTEN TO SUCCEED SOONER:


HOW TO EMBRACE FAILURE AS THE KEY FOR YOUR SUCCESS!!


“Success consists of going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm" stated so wisely Sir. Winston Churchill. In Switzerland, fear of failure and the resulting risk aversion are two of the main obstacles to creating and sustaining an entrepreneurial culture that neither considers success as final, nor failure as fatal. A culture that embraces failure as a pathway to success, and the latter as a lesson learned from the former.

During this evening that will be held in both English and French, we will hear inspirational talks from Prof. Jeffrey Petty, Mr. Patrick Delarive and Prof. Jacques Besson.
