All SportsTech enthusiasts, entrepreneurs and startup geeks – let’s meet, share new insights, and have fun!

To run a startup is like a high performance sport and the possibility of being the next big thing is as exciting and motivating as winning the next championship. But, it takes a lot of training and hard work and there are lot of challenges to tackle and failures to handle to get to the top. Sharing these failure stories creates a cultural shift around the acceptance of not succeeding, and enables a mindset of innovation.

For Vol. V of Laptop & Leibchen – the event series on sports, technology & innovation by Eintracht Frankfurt and TechQuartier – we’re really excited to welcome Carolin Schäfer. Carolin is one of the best athletes worldwide specialized in heptathlon (Siebenkampf) and won the silver medal in the last world cup 2017 in London.

Drawing parallels between the sports and the startup world, Carolin as one of Eintracht Frankfurt’s best athletes will share with us her failure stories in an open and honest way and – most importantly – how not to lose the motivation and how to get up again. Looking forward to an insightful evening.
