What happened
TechCrunch is accepting applications through September 4 to host Side Events around Disrupt 2026, which runs October 13-15 in San Francisco with over 10,000 attendees expected. Approved events get promoted to Disrupt attendees via official channels and can run anytime October 10-16, with evening slots during the main conference recommended for less competition.
Why it matters
Only relevant if you are planning to attend Disrupt 2026 or want to host a side event to reach its audience; the September 4 deadline is the concrete action item. For most Malaysian builders not attending, this has no direct impact.
Discussion angle
Whether hosting a side event at a major US tech conference is worth the cost for a Malaysian startup looking to expand internationally, versus more targeted regional events.
