The founder’s guide to TechCrunch Disrupt 2026: Everything you need to know

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is built around one question: How do you build an enduring company in the AI era? Our programming and speaker lineup reflect that.

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is focused on creating an enduring company in the AI era. The event kicked off in just a few days and offers a $100 discount before it expires. Last year, attendees had a 3x oversubscription rate in the Startup Battlefield and over 100 investor inbounds. Disrupt has brought together thousands of founders, investors, startup team members, and tech leaders since its inception, and it will continue to do so at Moscone West, San Francisco, from October 13-15.

Disrupt's programming is based on feedback from the community and the current startup landscape. The event covers six editorially curated stages, each tailored to a specific founder's need. Founders can save 50% on a second ticket or help laid-off colleagues find new opportunities at a special $75 Expo+ Pass. Disrupt offers various networking opportunities, including the Startup Battlefield, investor-matchmaking tools, and Side Events tailored to specific interests.

  • FPL Decision Engine merges data, AI, rules to evaluate real decisions
  • Engine's effectiveness in improving FPL performance still under testing
