Two days.That’sallthat’sleft to lock in your place—with your partner, co-founder, or colleague—atTechCrunch Disrupt 2026.
Right now, you canbuy one pass and get 50% off a second of the same ticket typebut that offer ends May 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT. After that, prices go up, and the opportunity to show up with more perspective, more context, and more clarity disappears with it.
At this stage, the advantage comes down to how quickly you leave with a clear sense of what to do next,which is whysecuring your passnowand deciding who to bring with you matters more than waiting.
Disrupt is where you get clarity on leveling up
Success in the startup ecosystem depends on knowing what to do next—and movingon itwith confidence. Across founders, investors, and operators, the challengeisn’ta lack of ideas.It’sclarity.
There are too many signals, too many opinions, and too manypossible directions. Product decisions stall. Investment timing stretches. Execution slows, not because the pathisn’tthere, but because itisn’tobvious.
Disruptcompresses that uncertainty into three days of high-impact programming,unparallelednetworking, and real-time insight from the people actively shaping the market, giving you access to claritythat’sdifficult to replicate elsewhere, and even harder to access if you wait past the May 8 deadline to secure your second pass for 50% off.

See howwaves in theindustry get made
One of the biggest advantages of being atDisruptis witnessing how decisions actually happen.
Startup Battlefield 200makes that clear. As founders pitch live in front of seasoned VC judges and a global audience,you’renot just watching—you’reseeing what gets challenged, what resonates, and whatultimately standsout.
That level of transparency is hard to replicate elsewhere, which is exactly why being in theroom —and locking in your pass while you can stillbring someone with you for 50% off—matters more than trying to piece these signals together after the fact.
Clarity comes from comparison, not isolation
What makesDisruptdifferentisn’tany one session—it’show patternsemergeacross them. You hear one perspective, test it in a roundtable, and see it reinforced—or challenged—in conversation later that day. Over time, the signal becomes clear.
For founders, that might mean refining product direction. For investors, spotting what stands out. For operators,pressure-testinghow to build and scale.
Bringing a co-founder, operator, or partner accelerates that clarity. You compare interpretations in real time, challenge assumptions, and make better decisions while the context is still fresh — an advantage you can only lock in by securing your placebefore the 50% off a second pass offer ends.
