Museum of Failure is a collection of failed products and services from around the world. The museum has over 200 items and new artifacts are added every year.
Innovation needs failure. All progress, not only technological progress, is built on learning from past failures and mistakes. The museum aims to stimulate discussions about failure and inspire us to take meaningful risks.
The museum provides unique insight into the tricky business of innovation and new product development. Most innovation projects fail and we showcase these failures to learn from them.
Learning is the only way to turn failure into success.
