Does your startup have what it takes to be the next�Getaround,�Qwiki, or�Soluto�and make it through the judges gauntlet to claim the top prize of $50,000, the "Disrupt Cup" and accolades of the crowd? �If you think so, make sure you�apply.
Disrupt is the premiere startup launch competition where the most promising founders and entrepreneurs vie to launch their companies on technology's biggest stage in front of all-star judges. We will have some of the most influential innovators, angels, and VCs judging in front of an audience of 2,000 investors, technologists, and press.
Applications will be open until midnight PT, tonight. Applications have been reviewed on a rolling basis, so please get yours in now. A video will be required as part of the application process. We will not accept any videos longer than 5 minutes and they should not exceed 50MB. In the video be sure to show us the product, its key features, and what makes it different. If selected, we may use segments of submitted videos during the Startup Battlefield competition at Disrupt SF. Applicants are also expected to attach a file with up to 5 power point slides summarizing and reinforcing the application. Don't worry�all submissions are confidential.
In order to compete in the Startup Battlefield, preference will be given to stealth startups that will be launching for the first time to the public and press at Disrupt SF. �All startups�must be live for fewer than three months at the time of application submission. �The competition will be taking place in San Francisco, but companies from all around the world are welcome to enter and we highly encourage them to do so. Companies that have already presented at other public launch evens are not eligible.
Be sure to read through all of the�rules and take a peek at the finalists from New York before submitting.
Disrupt SF�will be on September 12th � 14th, preceded by our hugely popular�Hackathon�on September 10th � 11th.
