Why Some Startups WIN with Nir Eyal & Colin Hodge

Picture it: a founder, a VC, a product designer and someone who runs a community of 2,000 makers, all arguing happily over the same question. Why did that product stick when ours didn't?

That's the conversation this evening is for. On November 5, two bestselling authors come to Taipei to dig into growth, habits and the psychology behind building products, companies and careers. Then they hand the conversation over to the room.

The two people getting it started

One of them wrote the book on habit-forming products, and then a book on how to stop getting hooked. The other wrote about the growth that makes investors sit up a little straighter. You can probably guess there'll be some good back-and-forth.

Not just another talk

You've seen this setup before: a stage, a slide deck, applause, then everyone rushes for the exit. This one runs the other way. The authors start the conversation, and the people in the room keep it going.

10+ communities from across Taiwan's startup ecosystem are coming together for one night: founders, operators, investors, business leaders, creatives and ecosystem builders. They come from different countries, industries and circles. Most of them are stuck on the same basic questions about building companies, changing behavior and growing in ways that matter.

Because the crowd is so mixed, you'll probably find more value in the conversation after the talk than in the talk itself. Bring your hardest growth question. Someone in a completely different industry might have already cracked it.

The essentials

Space is limited, so if this is your kind of room, grab your spot on Day1 Taipei soon.
