- TechCrunch is accepting applications for Side Events at Founder Summit 2026 until midnight PT tonight, with decisions made by its events team on a competitive basis.
- Founder Summit 2026 will bring over 1,000 tech leaders, founders, investors, and innovators to Boston from November 1–7 for a week of networking and official and affiliated events.
- Approved Side Events will gain visibility through TechCrunch’s channels including the official agenda, mobile app, attendee emails, social media, and a dedicated article.
- Hosts of approved events must cover all logistics and costs themselves and are not guaranteed inclusion, though they may offer ticket discounts to encourage attendance.
- Side Events can include meetups, happy hours, panels, or workshops, giving brands a chance to shape experiences and connect with the broader Founder Summit community.
Why it matters: With less than 24 hours to apply, the tight deadline raises urgency for Boston-area startups and tech organizations aiming to amplify their reach—approval brings access to a high-value network and promotional support from TechCrunch, but rejection means losing a rare platform during a major industry gathering.
