Failures & Learnings from the Startup World | Ooops Nights #3

For our third Ooops night, we are celebrating sustainability-focused female founders, so we have invited Barbora Surá, Nima Tisdall & Katrine Lee Larsen to share professional failures from their entrepreneurial journey as well as learnings on how to overcome fear of failure.

Barbora Surá is the co-founder and CEO of OUR SHIFT, an activist fashion brand. She’s a big dreamer and optimist and likes to take action. That’s why she co-created OUR SHIFT where she’s been connecting her huge interests in fashion, sustainability, and design to change the world for the better.

Nima S. Tisdall is one of two founders of Blue Lobster, a digital marketplace that allows you to purchase low-impact and fair seafood directly from fishermen. She has been recognised on Forbes “30 under 30” list, and is a European Leaders fellow with the Obama Foundation.

Katrine Lee Larsen is the founder and CEO of Copenhagen Cartel. After living in Bali and witnessing the consequences of plastic pollution in the ocean, Katrine Lee created Copenhagen Cartel from a desire to provide a better choice for swimwear. Going from a full-time marketing manager position to a start-up, she has in a relatively short time been able to turn it into a business that is attractive to investors.
