Founders & Investors Pitch Jam #TechCrunchDisrupt2025
At TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, the mic belongs to everyone. Pitch Jam flips the script with a fast-paced, social-first format where both investors and founders get 60 seconds on stage.
First, investors pitch to founders — why they’re the right partner, the right money, and the right fit.
Then, founders pitch back — short, bold, and high-energy.
Expect fun prompts, quick-fire rounds, cheers from the crowd, and lighthearted awards. After the jam, conversations continue over drinks, bites, and networking with some of the most dynamic voices in the startup ecosystem.
