Startup Battlefield 200: See the perks
As they say, money is not everything. All SB 200 companies receive the following perks, benefits and opportunities:
Full access to Disrupt: SB 200 founders attend Disrupt for free, receive four additional passes and VIP access to all presentations, breakouts and roundtables.
Free exhibition space for the entire exhibition: SB 200 will be the only early-stage startups allowed to exhibit at Disrupt.
Investment interest and media exposure: Investors chasing future unicorns and journalists looking for the next big story will hit it off on the show floor to meet and greet the founders of SB 200.
Workshops and field training: SB 200 founders will be invited to exclusive workshops and master classes in the weeks leading up to Disrupt, including dedicated pitch training from TechCrunch staff.
Announcements to an audience of TC investors and editors: This training will come in handy when you enter the Pitch Showcase Stage. You will receive valuable feedback and may find your way into an investor’s portfolio.
A shot at $100,000: TechCrunch editors will select 20 startups from the SB 200 to be Startup Battlefield finalists. Founders from these 20 companies will receive private mentoring, be featured in a TechCrunch article, and present live on stage in front of the entire Disrupt audience. The eventual winner gets the $100,000 non-stock prize and bragging rights to boot.
Do you have what it takes? You only have up to Monday June 10 at 11:59 PM PDT to prove it. Apply to Startup Battlefield 200 now. We would love to see you in San Francisco!
