FailCon Makes its Way to Atlanta for the First Time Ever, Top Entrepreneurs and CEO's to Speak

ATLANTA - April 3, 2014 - PRLog -- ATLANTA, GA - April 2014 - FailCon, a one-day conference for technology entrepreneurs, investors, developers and designers, is coming to the Atlanta Technology Village on Saturday, April 26th from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Entrepreneurs, CEO’s and founders will speak about past failures and highlight their newfound successes. Top speakers include: Michael Tavani, Co-founder of ScoutMob, Geoff Wilson, Founder of 352 Media and Corey Stanford, Founder of Blazetrak; among a list of other entrepreneurs.

This year, FailCon has partnered with the Atlanta Channel to bring the conference to one of the top business startup cities in the south. Executive produced by Atlanta native, Amber Saunders, Esq., FailCon teaches new lessons and focuses on major stories of the year, while continuing to help founders build the strongest products they can. “You aren’t a real entrepreneur until you have had to deal with failure, and recovering from it—financially, emotionally and practically—can be challenging,” said Saunders.

FailCon Atlanta targets approximately 200 founders and investors from the metropolitan area, and is currently working with potential partners and sponsors for the Atlanta conference. Current sponsors for the event include: Saunders Law Group, EA Ventures, Nichevertising, TechPines, The Resource Guild and Eventbrite.

ABOUT FAILCON

FailCon was started in 2009 by Cass Phillipps, an event planner for the startup community, and Diane Loviglio, founder of a cleantech startup. Through Failcon, Cass and her co-producers around the world hope to change the global opinion of failure. The lifestyle of an entrepreneur is wrought with small failures and mistakes, and if these are not acknowledged and discussed early, they only worsen. FailCon gives people a platform to share these lessons learned in a safe, productive and educational environment.
