- **Event Description**: We love a good success story, but what about the moments that didn't go to plan? Mistakes Were Made is returning in 2026 due to popular demand! Again, we will be flipping the script and taking a peek behind the curtain into the often untold moments of the journey.

Last year, this event sold out extremely quickly, and the community is still raving about it! RSVP now so you don't miss out!

Come along for three unique innovation stories about the times things didn’t quite go the way they thought they would - and the lessons those experiences taught them.

This session, you’ll hear from some really interesting founders! Sharing their stories and mistakes with you are: 
Greg Cook - Deputy Vice Chancellor of Research and Innovation (and Microbiologist)
Trevor McIntrye - Founder of Ripple & Radley
Tori McNoe - Head of Lighthouse 

You'll also get to hear from Maree Thyne, Pro-Vice Chancellor of the Otago Business School.

Come and join us for a real & authentic evening with Ōtepoti’s wider startup community. You don't want to miss this one!
