The Disrupt Stage, only at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, is where tech’s biggest bets get made, live and unfiltered. It’s where startup dreams turn into $100,000 prizes in Startup Battlefield 200, and where the industry’s power players reveal what’s next. The industry’s biggest voices take the main-stage spotlight This year, we’re bringing Alphabet’s moonshot chief Astro Teller, Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott, Netflix CTO Elizabeth Stone, and Vinod Khosla — never one to mince words — to the stage. Sequoia’s Roelof Botha will unpack the future of venture, Slate Auto is showcasing its first fully customizable electric truck, and Phia’s headline-making founders, including Phoebe Gates, are taking us inside one of the hottest new commerce startups on the scene. They’ll be joined by Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, diving into the future of decentralized computing; Elad Gil, the investor and operator behind some of tech’s biggest success stories, offering his take on AI, capital, and the next wave of innovation; Roy Lee, the headline-grabbing mind behind Cluely; and Tristan Thompson, the NBA champion–turned–AI founder, sharing how he’s merging sports, analytics, and automation. And yes, we’ll also hear from San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie, making his case for why startups — from early-stage scrappers to IPO-ready giants — should bet on building in San Francisco.
