Rethinking Startup Landscapes at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025

TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, a leading conference in the startup ecosystem, is set to take place from October 27 to 29, 2025. The convention will be held at the new Moscone West convention center in San Francisco. GET READY for 10,000+ innovative startup and venture capital leaders—virtually! This year’s theme was access, geography, and opportunity. It’s a big challenge to the idea that the most successful companies should always need to come out of Silicon Valley.

Joinlining David Hall, partner at Revolution, to glean pearls of wisdom from his ten-year long private equity experience. He’ll prove that innovative success is possible outside of Silicon Valley’s bubble. He finds the time to drive home the point on how innovation knows no geography. Our third executive, Heather Doshay, partner at SignalFire, and former VP of People at Webflow. Together, they’ll focus on helping entrepreneurs scale people-first organizations. Doshay’s experience fostering inclusive workplace cultures will help give attendees the unique perspective they need to grow.

Voices of Innovation

One of the most unique features of TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 will be a joint session with the venture capitalists. More About David Hall, Heather Doshay, & Anh-Tho Chuong. These three will be discussing the Builders Stage. Given her experience as a founder rethinking open-source billing with her YC-backed platform Lago, she offers a distinct perspective as well to this discussion. Most recently Lago has earned the trust of AI pioneers such as Mistral and Together, demonstrating its key role in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.

Our session will dig into how access should start to look in 2025 and where the real opportunities are for the founders of tomorrow. The discussion will focus on how access to key resources and networks can help the entrepreneurial potential beyond the usual hotspots. Through telling their stories, these trail-blazing leaders will motivate participants to expand their imagination past the limits of today.
