TechCrunch Disrupt 2026: Exhibition Opportunities
You can spend months trying to introduce yourself to the right people. Or you can show up where they are already looking. At TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, more than 10,000 founders, investors and operators will gather at Moscone West October 13-15.
And at the center of it all – where deals start, conversations accelerate, and new businesses are discovered – is Expo Hall.

Why Exhibit at Disrupt Works
Disrupt is not a passive audience; it is an active ecosystem. Investors, operators, and decision-makers don’t just walk the field. They show up with intention. They are there to:
- Find products to invest in.
- Evaluate what tools they can use right away.
- Meet startups worth supporting.
- Identify companies to collaborate with or hire.

This intention is what makes the exhibitor program work. Instead of waiting to be discovered, you are directly positioned on the path to:
- Investors looking for deal flow.
- Founders building and buying.
- Operators solving real problems.
It’s not just a question of visibility. It’s the proximity of opportunities. Exhibition tables are limited. Find out how to reserve an exhibition table.
What You Actually Get (And How It Helps)
A display table at Disrupt is the entry point, but the value comes from everything around it.
For $12,500, your team is set up for three full days in Expo Hall, Disrupt’s busiest area, with a fully marked 6-foot table, signage, and seating included.
Most importantly, you are equipped to operate beyond the booth.
Your Disrupt Exhibition Package includes:
- 5 all-access Exhibitor-Partner passes.
- Additional tickets are available at 50% off.
This means your team isn’t limited to one location; you walk through the event, join conversations, and meet people where decisions are actually made.

You also get:
- Advanced lead capture via the Disrupt mobile app.
- Access to the TechCrunch press list.
- Branding on website, app, signage, and sponsor listings.
With:
- Silver level sponsor designation.
- Inclusion in some TechCrunch coverage.
- Thanks at the closing ceremony.
Everything is put in place to make you visible, credible, and easy to find. Reserve your exhibition table at Disrupt.
Why Startups Keep Coming Back
Startups return to exhibit at Disrupt year after year because the results are tangible: qualified foot traffic, high-value conversations, and real opportunities.

Startups come:
- Launch products in front of the right audience.
- Quickly generate qualified leads.
- Introduce themselves to the media that amplifies their story.
- Build relationships that translate into funding and partnerships.
And they do it in a highly concentrated environment:
- More than 20,000 meetings organized throughout the event
- More than 300 startups actively present
- Thousands of decision-makers looking for solutions
This level of density changes the timeline. Conversations that can take months to start can start – and move forward – in days. Don’t be the last to reserve an exhibition table. See what you get as an exhibitor.
This is Where Discovery Happens
Disrupt’s Expo Hall highlights opportunities. This is where:
- Investors find their next portfolio company.
- Founders discover tools that accelerate growth.
- Operators identify solutions they can deploy immediately.
Ideas move quickly here, from introduction to conversation to opportunity.
If your company is building something real, this is where it shows. Reserve an exhibition table while you still can.
Who Should Exhibit?
Disrupt’s exhibitor program is open to startups at any stage and in any industry. It is particularly useful for teams ready to:
- Launch or relaunch a product.
- Build a pipeline quickly.
- Raise capital or increase visibility.
- Introduce yourself to the right audience without delay.
If timing is important – and it usually is – this is a direct way to compress it. See exhibition details and deadlines.
Limited Tables. No Extensions.
There are a limited number of 6′ display tables available, and no extensions. They are:
- First come, first served.
- Available while supplies last or September 25 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
Once they are gone, there is no additional inventory. If you’re serious about growing, don’t wait.
It’s where startups are discovered, conversations turn into capital, and products find a market. The Expo Hall is the starting point for these conversations. If you’re not on the ground, you’re not a part of it. Join us as an exhibitor.
