The event will bring founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders together at Moscone West in San Francisco from October 13-15, creating a packed meeting point for technology conversations and new connections.
The ticket pricing window ends on September 25 at 11:59 p.m. PT. After that time, prices will increase, giving attendees a clear deadline to secure the current savings and plan their place at one of the year’s major technology gatherings.
A Major Technology Gathering Takes Shape
Disrupt 2026 will feature over 200 sessions with 250+ tech leaders across six industry stages. The program will cover AI, biotech & health, climate, fintech, fundraising, robotics, startups, and venture topics, giving attendees a broad view of the forces shaping technology and business.
The scale reaches beyond the stage schedule. The event aims to bring together 10,000+ founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders, turning Moscone West into a central meeting place for people building companies, funding ideas, and guiding technology teams.
That range matters because the program connects emerging technology discussions with the people working across the wider startup and investment landscape. Attendees will find sessions focused on specific industries, along with opportunities to move between topics as the event unfolds.

AI-Powered Matchmaking Meets In-Person Meetings
Disrupt 2026 is designed for more than scheduled talks. Attendees can schedule 1:1 meetings through the TechCrunch Events app, which provides AI-powered matchmaking and adds a structured way to pursue valuable connections during the event.
Industry meetups and roundtable sessions will create more spaces for discussion, while impromptu meetings can open another path through the conference. Together, these formats give attendees several ways to connect, whether they arrive with a specific meeting plan or build conversations across the three-day event.
The meeting tools also reinforce the event’s central promise: “Your next big connection is at Disrupt.” With founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders gathered in one venue, the app and in-person program work side by side to support those introductions.
For anyone tracking AI and other emerging technology trends, the six-stage program offers a concentrated view of the topics driving the event. AI sits alongside robotics, fintech, biotech & health, climate, fundraising, startups, and venture discussions, creating a program that spans both technical progress and the business systems around it.
