TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 will bring more than 10,000 founders, investors, technology leaders and creators to San Francisco's Moscone West from October 13 to 15.
Three days of ideas, products and connections
The event's Expo Hall will host hundreds of startups and technology companies presenting new products, business models and emerging solutions. The program is designed to spotlight the people and ideas shaping the next phase of the digital economy.
Across six stages, attendees can explore more than 200 sessions, roundtables and smaller discussions. Topics will range from artificial intelligence, fintech and robotics to infrastructure, product strategy, fundraising, recruitment and responsible scaling.
The speaker program includes leaders from OpenAI, Rivian, Anthropic, NVIDIA, Cerebras Systems and Inspired Capital, alongside entrepreneur and MUNICIPAL co-founder Mark Wahlberg. Their sessions are expected to offer perspectives on building companies, developing technology and navigating fast-changing markets.
Startup Battlefield returns to the stage
A central feature of the gathering will be Startup Battlefield 200. Twenty selected finalists will present their companies live for a $100,000 prize, placing early-stage ventures in front of investors, industry experts and the broader startup community.
Online passes remain available before the event begins, with advance savings of up to $100 and reduced pricing for a second eligible pass. The event will open at Moscone West on October 13.
By convening ambitious founders with established technology leaders, Disrupt 2026 may help accelerate the partnerships and practical ideas that define tomorrow's innovation landscape.
