Of the 200 participants, 20 companies will take the Disrupt stage and present their projects live before leading investors and the TechCrunch community. One startup will receive the Disrupt Cup and $100,000 in non-dilutive funding.
Among Startup Battlefield alumni from previous years, TechCrunch names Dropbox, Discord, Cloudflare, Fitbit, Mint, and Trello. According to the publication, companies that have participated in the program since its launch have collectively raised $32 billion in funding.
