TechCrunch Puts the Spotlight on Austin, TX

Wednesday, April 6 at 11:45am PT / 2:45pm ET

TechCrunch is hosting a special episode of TechCrunch Live centered on Austin, Texas. We hope you can join us. The episode, like every TechCrunch Live episode, is streamed live and is programmed to help founders build better venture-backed businesses. The extended episode will feature a pitch deck tear down with The Zebra, a talk with venture capitalists actively writing checks, and a pitch-off with early Austin-based startups.

The line up is killer, but no showcase would be complete without an Austin Pitch-Off. TechCrunch editorial is on the hunt to showcase three Austin-based startups. To qualify you need to:

  • Be based in the greater Austin area
  • Have an MVP
  • Pre-series A

Each company will have 4 minutes to pitch followed by a 5 minute Q&A with our fantastic judges. Companies will get private training with the Startup Battlefield team responsible for training all the TechCrunch early stage company pitches, a mini feature on TechCrunch.com, and a complimentary table at TechCrunch Disrupt 2022 in person. 

Applications will be open until March 31, 2022
