TechCrunch’s Startup Battlefield 200 is the world’s preeminent competition for early-stage startups. It’s also the absolute best way for an entrepreneur to get the most out of Disrupt 2024.

When we say “early stage,” we mean a few things. Companies must have an MVP, but they can be totally bootstrapped, pre-seed, seed, or even Series A. The ideal fit is an entrepreneur who will showcase something truly disruptive onstage. Know anyone good?

Your referral could open some major doors for the applicants selected. Some perks for this elite class of startups include full access to:

  • TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 for up to four team members.
  • Free exhibition space on the show floor for all three days.
  • Chance to win $100,000 and pitch on the main stage.
  • Exclusive workshops.
  • Investor office hours.
  • Mentorship.
  • Training.
  • Perks.

For investors, joining the network of Startup Battlefield will have its perks too. You’ll connect with some of the most ambitious founders in the game today. Startup Battlefield alumni represent 1,300+ companies with ~200 successful exits (IPOs or acquisitions) and over $29 billion in funding raised. You could be responsible for helping one of the selected founders get the opportunity to flash-pitch in front of an audience of investors and TechCrunch editors. That’s huge.
