Startup Battlefield 200: Final week to submit your application

Startup Battlefield 200 at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 is still accepting applications — but the clock is ticking. In just one week, the chance to compete in the arena for the ultimate global pitch-off will close. Over 10,000 tech and VC leaders will be watching. This is your startup’s shot to be seen, backed, and remembered.
This isn’t your typical pitch opportunity. It’s a high-stakes, high-impact battle for exposure, funding, and your next big leap. If your startup has traction, vision, and the guts to compete — you’ve got until June 9 to submit your startup.
Thousands will apply. 200 will rise. 20 will battle on the Disrupt main stage. One will walk away with $100,000 in equity-free funding — and the coveted Disrupt cup.
