Pitch Your Startup In The Austin And Seattle TC Pitch-Offs

Hot on the heels of Disrupt, we’re (re)packing our bags to come to two of our favorite cities in the world, Austin and Seattle.

We’ll be hitting Austin on June 23, where we’ll get a little weird, and then we’ll head up to Seattle on June 25 for our third-annual Seattle Pitch-Off. These will be nights to remember, but prep starts now.

The first priority is going through applications for the Pitch-Offs, which offer ten startups from each city the opportunity to hop on stage and pitch their product to the audience and a panel of local VC judges.

They have just sixty seconds to make their presentation, followed by a short Q&A, and the winner goes home with two tickets to TechCrunch Disrupt SF and a table at Startup Alley.

If any of that is enticing to you, head over here to fill out an application.

If not, that’s okay! We have lots in store for everyone, whether you’re simply too early- or late-stage to participate in the pitch-off or you just want to hang with cool people in tech scene. Tickets costs $10 and include a drink ticket (which means this is a 21+ event).

Buy tickets to Austin here.
