  "account": "To participate in the TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026, you have the opportunity to invest in your startup's growth by securing a Founder Pass for yourself and a business partner. This exclusive event offers game-changing insights and high-quality curated networking, exceeding what you could achieve on your own.\n\nWhen registering, consider purchasing a group of 4 to 12 passes to take advantage of BOGO and Group/Bundle savings. Keep in mind that these savings cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts, and they only apply to a group of the same pass type purchased in a single transaction. Lost badges incur a $45 reprint fee on-site, and tickets are non-refundable after August 7, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. PT. The name on the badge must match the name on the attendee's government-issued photo ID.\n\nIf you need to transfer your ticket, log into the \"Manage Registration\" email with the subject line \"Order Confirmation | TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026\" and follow the instructions. To update your ticket details, click the \"Manage Your Registration Details\" link in your confirmation email, ensuring your information matches your government-issued photo ID. Unfortunately, updating your email address is not possible through this system, so contact [email protected] if necessary.\n\nExchanging your ticket type is allowed only once. If you upgrade to a more expensive ticket, you must pay the price difference. However, downgrading to a less expensive pass type does not entitle you to a refund for the price difference. Each badge is for a single individual, and IDs are verified at registration and conference entry. If you have trouble finding your ticket, search for an email with the subject line \"Your Ticket Is Here | TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026.\"",
