A few years ago Yanire Braña had a vision, with which she combined Woman, Entrepreneur and Technology (MET) (Mujer, Emprendimiento y Tecnología in Spanish). Since that moment several forums, workshops, meetings and mentoring sessions have been held under with the brand of “MET community”. The one event from last Saturday, the 5th of November 2016, will be difficult to forget for some people. It will mean different things for everyone: a new start, a “stop to take a breath”, an impulse or a showcase, a thank-you, a moment of “it was about time”, a day to remember hard beginnings of a beautiful entrepreneur adventure, a reunion, an expected encounter or a “I should have gone”. But the most important thing is that the best is yet to come and other similar experiences that, personally, I hope I’ll be able to live, will come.

It’s been a few months since I posted and shared my experiences and concerns about people and entrepreneur initiatives with you here. Okay, so I’m back. These months have been tough, where the love of the people who care about me have helped me come back with the same illusion, willingness and energy that I had the 25th of November in 2014. Thank you for your support during these last months.

Today I want to present you two things: first, an initiative that I think I haven’t talked to you about yet, which I think it was about time, and the second one, and entirely related to that initiative, some thoughts about something I think it’s necessary to address with entrepreneur people: failure.

Are you ready?
