It’s been 3 days. It’s all about deciding not only whether you attend TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, but also who you attend at San Francisco’s Moscone West from October 13th to 15th, and how much credibility you take from this opportunity.
Currently, when you buy one pass, you get 50% off a second pass of the same type of ticket. This offer ends on May 8th at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. Then prices go up, and without the coverage, visibility, and presence that actually makes the experience worthwhile, the cost of appearing goes up too.
Because at some point, what determines how fast a company moves forward is whether it is seen, understood, and taken seriously by those who can influence what happens next.
You only have three days left to act. Who would you like to bring to Disrupt? Select your ticket type to lock in your 50% discount.
Gain visibility across all interactive sessions
Most founders don’t struggle to get noticed. There are more channels than ever to get in front of people, and more ways to create surface-level visibility. More difficult, and much more important, is gaining trust.
Investors don’t just respond to visibility. They respond to confidence. Partners do not engage based on perception. They engage based on trust. Even early customers are making decisions about what feels established, what feels validated, and what feels worth their time.
Disrupt is designed to show how companies gain trust at each stage of growth by putting founders, investors, and executives in an environment where they can build trust in real time with hands-on, hands-on sessions across six industry stages.

Why bringing someone in increases your influence
Disrupt, held in San Francisco from October 13th to 15th, will bring together more than 10,000 founders, investors, and executives in one centralized environment built for evaluation and discovery.
With over 250 sessions, roundtables, discussions, and over 300 startups on display, companies won’t be seen just once. They are seen repeatedly in front of the same investors, partners, and media.
Repeating this process turns popularity into credibility. A simple introduction will give you recognition. Recognition leads to familiarity, and familiarity builds trust.
