Turn setbacks into something valuable

The inspiration session 'Missen is Wenselijk (or 'Failing Forward') focuses on something that is inseparable from science, yet often hidden in the shadows: failure.

How do you handle it constructively? And how do you turn setbacks into something valuable and instructive? In this inspiration session, we explore how to do exactly that — honest, practical, and without taboos.

Our inspiration sessions

Introduce your team or event audience to science communication in an engaging way. Our dynamic inspiration sessions are perfect for conferences, research days, or faculty-wide events. We spark motivation, build awareness, and share practical tips — fully tailored to your goals and audience.

Sessions can be expanded with hands-on exercises and are suitable for larger groups of 20–50 participants. We offer them in both English and Dutch.
