Put your brand in the technology spotlight
Disrupt brings thousands of founders, investors, partners, and technology leaders to San Francisco. Side events provide another way to connect with the community before, during, and after the conference.
We will host a networking event. Gather technology leaders and have fun. Host panels and workshops. Create memorable experiences for your community. You plan the event.
Approved side events:
Access the Disrupt community and connect your audience with founders, investors, partners, and innovators across the ecosystem. Grow your presence beyond the conference floor by hosting an event during the broader “Disrupt Week” October 10-16. Gain even more visibility from TechCrunch through publication on the official side event page, agenda, mobile app, attendee emails, TechCrunch articles, and social channels. Give your community even more reason to attend Disrupt with a 25% ticket discount that you can share with your network.
Submitting an application does not guarantee that your event will be accepted or hosted as an official TechCrunch Disrupt side event.
All applications will be reviewed by the TechCrunch events team. Events must be approved in advance to be included in the official side event program. All logistics and costs are the responsibility of the customer.
