Turku Institute for Advanced Studies organises a symposium on failure 13.4.2018
What is failure? Is failure necessarily a bad thing? Does it have a virtuous side? Is success even possible without failure? Is fear of failure increasing? If so, what should be done? Join TIAS researchers and keynote speakers as we investigate failure in its myriad forms and revel in the paradox of helping to make our Failure Symposium a success!
The keynote speakers will include Professor Simon Frith (University of Edinburgh), Professor Susanna Paasonen (University of Turku) and Professor Jaakko Suominen (University of Turku). TIAS researchers will lead a number of workshops.
>> Provisional Programme of the symposium
Registration fee is 30 euros for waged researchers (20 euros for students). This includes participation in the keynotes and workshops, coffee and snacks in the morning and afternoon, and reception afterwards. Deadline to register is 6 April.
