This is it — today is your last chance to host a Side Event at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 in San Francisco.

By tonight, applications close. No extensions. No late entries. Apply here.

Disrupt Week, taking place October 25–31, is your chance to put your brand in front of 10,000+ founders and investors, plus the Bay Area tech ecosystem. To create the conversations that shape the conference. To stand out.

We’ll handle the promotion. You own the event. All you need to do is submit your proposal now. Don’t miss this opportunity to shine the spotlight on your brand — apply before midnight.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to boost your brand

Still debating? Here’s what you’ll miss if you don’t host:

  • Influence where it matters: Shape the conversations happening around Disrupt 2025 instead of just attending them.
  • Direct deal flow: Get face time with founders and investors outside of the crowded expo floor.
  • Audience leverage: Use your exclusive host discount codes to draw your own network into Disrupt and your event.
  • Competitive edge: While others blend into the attendee crowd, you’ll stand out as a convener of ideas and people.
  • Amplification with credibility: Having your event listed alongside Disrupt programming and the TechCrunch audience gives it weight — and we’ll help signal-boost while you fill the room with your targets.

Hurry before applications close tonight
