TechCrunch Disrupt 2022 is weeks away, and today I’m thrilled to announce the 200 startups selected to participate in the first ever Startup Battlefield 200 cohort. These companies were selected by TechCrunch editorial staff out of thousands of applications, and receive free exhibition space at Disrupt, special workshops, receptions and masterclasses on building and running a startup. From across the globe, these 200 companies are the top in their respective industries.
Of the 200 companies, 20 will be selected to pitch their company on the huge Disrupt stage in front of thousands of attendees for a chance to win $100,000 and the Disrupt Cup. Tickets are still available to the show. Register here the October event!
The highlighted showcase categories
Literally months in the making, TechCrunch editorial staff read, vetted and debated every application. Winnowing the group to 200 companies was a challenging, exhausting thrill ride, and we could not be more excited by the results. These rising-star startups represent the innovation taking place across these tech categories:
- Hardware, Robotics, AI + ML
- HealthTech + BioTech
- Space + Security
- SaaS, Enterprise + Retail
- Education, HR + Future of Work
- Climate + CleanTech
- FinTech + Blockchain
- Mobility + Transportation
