How to Host a Side Event at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025: Opportunities for Innovators
Elevate Your Brand: Host a Side Event at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025

TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 is set to unite more than 10,000 founders, investors, and technology leaders from October 27-29 at San Francisco’s iconic Moscone West. But the real magic often happens outside the main conference halls—across the city in exclusive gatherings where meaningful connections and business opportunities unfold.
Why Host a Side Event?
Side Events are your chance to shape the Disrupt experience, putting your brand and ideas at the forefront during Disrupt Week (October 25-31). Whether you’re thinking of a networking dinner, a hands-on workshop, a startup pitch night, or a casual mixer, you can choose the format that best suits your goals and audience.
- Reach the right crowd: TechCrunch will help amplify and promote your event to ensure it attracts founders, VCs, and tech enthusiasts who matter to your business.
- Showcase your expertise: Hosting an event lets you lead the conversation, demonstrate thought leadership, and build new partnerships.
- Flexible format: There’s no set mold—create an experience that matches your brand’s personality and objectives.
