TechCrunch Unveils 2026 Disrupt Breakout Agenda for 10,000+ Attendees as AI and Fundraising Dominate

Summary
October 13-15 is when TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 will bring its newly detailed breakout agenda to Moscone West, with 50-minute sessions focused on AI agents, inference economics, physical AI, fundraising, growth, and team-building.
10,000+ founders, investors, operators, and tech leaders are expected at the San Francisco event, where breakout rooms are designed for deeper discussion and audience Q&A rather than main-stage presentations.
AI themes run through much of the lineup, including Anthropic staff on agent workflows, Cerebras and Glasswing on the shift from training to inference, and SOSV HAX and Venrock-backed speakers on physical AI.
Registration discounts are part of the push ahead of the conference: passes are up to $100 off, a second ticket is 50% off, groups of four or more get extra savings, and laid-off attendees can buy a $75 Expo+ pass.
