Four days. That’s all that’s left to decide, not just whether you’ll be atTechCrunch Disrupt 2026, but also how you’ll show up from October 13 to 15 at San Francisco’s Moscone West and how much momentum you create once you’re there. Right now, you cansave up to $410 on your Disrupt passbefore prices increase on May 29 at 11:59 p.m. PT. After that, rates go up, and so does the cost of missing the conversations, visibility, and connections that can accelerate what happens next for your company. Because at a certain point, growth is no longer just about building. It’s about being seen, understood, and taken seriously by the people who influence what comes next. You only have four days left to secure your savings.Choose your ticket typeand lock in the lowest available rates before prices rise. Mostfoundersdon’t struggle to generate attention. There are more channels than ever to get in front of people and more ways to create surface-level visibility. What’s harder, and far more important, is earning credibility. Investorsdon’t respond to visibility alone; they respond to confidence. Partners don’t engage based on awareness; they engage based on trust. Even early customers are making decisions about what feels established, what feels validated, and what feels worth their time. Across six industry stages, Disrupt is designed to show how companies earn trust at every phase of growth by putting founders, investors, and operators in environments where credibility is built in real time through practical, hands-on sessions.Visit the Disrupt agendato see the new sessions added to each stage. Builders and operators break down how companies actually scale. Learning from founders who’ve done it, and applying those frameworks, helps you speak with more authority when discussing growth, fundraising, and execution. Explore how leading companies are applying AI in practice. Hearing directly from builders and investors working at the frontier helps founders anchor their approach in what’s proven, not just what’s promised, strengthening credibility with both technical and business audiences. Beyond software, AI is reshaping the physical world. Hear from founders and operators building trusted, scalable systems in robotics, biotech, and edge environments where real-world constraints define success. Money is being rebuilt in real time. Explore how founders are shaping the future of finance through stablecoins, payments, and fintech infrastructure while cutting through hype to reveal what’s actually working in a digital economy. Software is transforming energy, climate, and industrial systems. Explore how founders are rebuilding infrastructure, from data center power to grid bottlenecks, while deploying smarter, scalable systems for a more resilient future. The main stage where top founders, investors, and operators define what matters next. Being part of these conversations, and referencing them, positions you within the broader narrative of where the market is heading. From October 13–15 in San Francisco,Disruptbrings together 10,000+ founders, investors, and operators in one concentrated environment built for evaluation and discovery. Across250+ sessions, roundtables, and discussions, and with300+ startups showcasing, companies aren’t seen once. They’re seen repeatedly in front of the same investors, partners, and media. That repetition is what turns visibility into credibility. A quick introduction becomes recognition. Recognition becomes familiarity, and familiarity builds trust. The founders and operators who gain the most from Disrupt aren’t just attending sessions. They’re building relationships, reinforcing their presence across conversations, and positioning themselves within the networks that shape what happens next in tech. For the next four days, you still have time tosecure your pass before rates increase. Savings of up to $410 end May 29 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
