Part 3/10:
Amid this landscape of high failure, a movement emerged rooted in honesty and vulnerability. Pepe Villatoro, one of the co-founders of FuckUp Nights in Mexico City, recounts how it all started—over tequila with friends. The idea was simple yet provocative: share their most relevant failures instead of success stories. The humor and boldness behind the name caught on, forming a platform where entrepreneurs and professionals could openly discuss their setbacks.
Seven years later, FuckUp Nights has transformed into a global phenomenon, with chapters in over 338 cities. Originally born out of casual conversations among friends, it has grown into a movement encouraging transparency about failure—something often taboo in professional and social environments.
