3 days to Disrupt 2026: Meet the startups before they hit mainstream | TechCrunch

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 starts in just three days. Moscone West is getting ready, hundreds of startups are preparing to show what they’ve built, and thousands of founders, investors, and tech leaders are heading to San Francisco.

The three-day countdown is on, and so are your pass savings of up to $100. Grab your pass before TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 doors open on October 13 at 8 a.m. PT. Bring a co-founder, colleague, or peer and get a second ticket of the same type at 50% off . Coming with a group? Enjoy even more savings when you register four or more attendees .

For more than a decade, discovering ambitious early-stage companies has been at the heart of Disrupt. Startup Battlefield 200 puts a handpicked group of early-stage startups in front of investors, media, potential customers, and the wider technology ecosystem, with 20 finalists taking to the Disrupt Stage to compete for the $100,000 prize and the coveted Disrupt Cup.

You don’t need to follow the competition to make startup discovery the focus of your visit. Throughout the Expo Hall, over 300 startups at different stages and from different sectors will be showing what they’re building, giving you the chance to talk directly with founders and find a startup, product, investment opportunity, or idea you weren’t expecting.

Or, if you want to combine discovery with content, explore 200+ sessions led by 250+ tech leaders across six stages, plus roundtables and breakouts. Covering AI, product, GTM, fundraising, finance, infrastructure, and scaling, these sessions give you the chance to ask questions, spark new connections, and hear industry announcements and insights before they hit the mainstream.

Just 3 days left to save. Get up to $100 off your pass , plus 50% off a second pass of the same ticket type. Recently affected by a layoff? You can still access the opportunities at Disrupt with an Expo+ Pass for just $75 . Attending with colleagues or friends? Bring a group of four or more and unlock additional savings .
