TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 invites founders to explore how to take innovative prototypes from lab to real-world production at the Real World AI Stage. Leaders in space communications, autonomous systems, and AI infrastructure will share their experiences navigating the transition from successful prototype to production-ready deployment.
Disrupt returns to Moscone West in San Francisco, October 13-15, hosting over 10,000+ attendees for 250+ sessions on the technologies and market forces shaping the future. Although every industry has its unique path, all three speakers face the same reality: a successful prototype is only the beginning. This Real World AI Stage session offers a rare opportunity to compare scaling strategies across industries, rather than presenting a single blueprint.
Founders will discuss how manufacturing, deployment, infrastructure, and day-to-day operations become integral to their products, offering valuable lessons for startups.
