Shine the Spotlight on Your Brand in the Tech Community

TechCrunch Disrupt attracts a large audience of founders, investors, partners, and tech leaders to San Francisco. Hosting a Side Event is an opportunity to engage with this community before, during, and after the conference.

Whether it’s a meetup, a happy hour for tech leaders, a panel discussion, or a workshop, you have the freedom to plan an event that resonates with your community.

An approved Side Event will:

• Connect your audience with key players in the tech ecosystem, including founders, investors, and innovators.

• Extend your brand’s presence throughout “Disrupt week,” from October 10–16.

• Receive additional visibility through TechCrunch’s official Side Events page, agenda, mobile app, attendee emails, an article, and social media channels.

• Offer your community a 25% ticket discount to attend Disrupt.

Submitting an application does not guarantee that your event will be accepted. All applications are reviewed by the TechCrunch events team, and approved events will be included in the official Side Events program. You will be responsible for all logistics and costs related to your event.

If you’re ready to expand your brand’s reach, take the first step and apply now.
