Dear PSL,

Happy End of October! We hope that you're kicking off fall in the best way possible, and are ready for some great things ahead in the ecosystem!

We're so excited to present Founder Factory: Fail Fest 2022 happening 11/16 at Mindspace Philadelphia! We know its tough being a startup founder these days. You'll ready stories upon stories that highlight the successes of certain journeys, but what about the failures, the low lows, and roadblocks along the way? With Fail Fest, we'd like to offer the startups the option to win by learning from the fails of others. 

Join us 11/16 to meet and learn from successful founders who have experienced and overcame "failures" including bombed pitches, exhausted financial runway, fundraising challenges, co-founder breakups, bootstrapping nightmares, and more- before finding their path to success. This year's event will also offer a number of founder resources to include hot desks for co-working, founder headshots, service provider meet and greets, and more. 

We're really pumped for this and hope to see you there! Read on for more great events and news happening in the community. 

We're still beaming from our 10/6 Blockchain Breakfast that we hosted in partnership with LIFT Labs. With over 90 attendees registered, and an insightful panel moderated by Mark Wheeler, the morning brought such great energy and knowledge in, surrounding the Blockchain and Web3 industries in Philadelphia. We'd like to give a huge thank you to the LIFT Labs and DeFi Philly teams, as well as our incredible panelists Arpit Mathur, Karla Ballard, David Barrick, Michael Ghen, and Kelly Gallagher. Stay tuned and locked in on PSL Connect for upcoming events and programming!
