If you have been considering organizing a meetup, happy hour, cocktail party, workshop, panel, or any other gathering during Disrupt week, it is the perfect time to move forward with your plans.
The deadline to submit applications for an official Disrupt Side Event is September 4 at midnight Pacific Time.
From October 10 to October 16, San Francisco will be filled with founders, investors, builders, and technology leaders gathering to connect, learn, and witness the future of innovation. Hosting a Side Event allows you to integrate your own community into this momentum and facilitate conversations that extend well beyond the conference days.
Amplify your brand by ensuring your approved Side Event is highlighted on the Disrupt Side Events page, agenda, mobile app, newsletters, articles, and social channels. Connect your audience with thousands of attendees, potential investors, partners, and fellow innovators.
Make a significant mark on Disrupt week by hosting an experience that authentically reflects your brand, community, and vision.
Provide your network with an additional incentive to attend by utilizing the 25% discount on Disrupt tickets that hosts receive for their communities.
You are not required to limit your networking with tech leaders to the main conference's three-day schedule. Side Events can take place throughout the Bay Area on October 10–16, offering flexible opportunities to bring people together at the right time.
You have a limited window of 48 hours to have your event considered for the official Disrupt Side Events lineup.
Applications close tomorrow, September 4, at midnight PT. Do not wait until Disrupt week to regret missing the opportunity to host something. Bring your people together, own a moment during the event, and make your experience part of the broader conversation.
