TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, running October 13-15 in San Francisco, will host 10,000+ founders and investors for in-depth discussions on AI, physical AI, and fundraising. The event will feature breakout sessions designed to tackle pressing issues in the tech industry, offering a platform for attendees to engage directly with leaders and experts.

The lineup includes sessions on topics such as physical AI, AI-agent workflows, and the inference economy, with speakers like Susan Schofer and Hagay Lupesko. These discussions aim to provide actionable insights and practical strategies for navigating the evolving tech landscape.

"AI is moving beyond software and into machines that need to perceive, reason, and act in unpredictable environments," said Susan Schofer, Partner and Chief Science Officer at SOSV HAX. This shift requires a different approach to building and investing in AI technologies.

The event follows the recent launch of several AI-focused startups and the growing interest in physical AI applications. TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is positioned as a key platform for exploring these emerging trends and their implications for the future of technology.

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 did not specify the exact number of attendees or the final pricing for passes, and the event organizers emphasized the importance of early registration to secure spots. The event will also offer discounted passes for those who register early and bring groups of four or more.
