Announcing The TechCrunch 2015 Disrupt Battlefield Finalists

We’re now on the flipside of our 17th TechCrunch Disrupt conference. In the past two days, over 2100 people have passed through the Manhattan Center for TechCrunch Disrupt NY, with dreams of becoming the next president of the United States or the next Snapchat or the next Estée Lauder. Along with NYC mayor Bill DeBlasio and presidential hopeful Carly Fiorina, executives and founders like Joanne Bradford, Dennis Crowley, Leandra Medine have graced our stage.

Tomorrow we’ll get to see talks by Tristan Walker, Alexis Ohanian, Casper’s Philip Krim and more.

In tandem with the above interviews, twenty-four startups have presented on our stage in Startup Battlefield. It was very difficult to make the decisions, but after much deliberation, we’ve got our six finalists picked out. These companies will move on to the finals round tomorrow, competing for a large check and even larger cup.

Finals judges include John Borthwick (Betaworks), Dennis Crowley (Foursquare), Eric Hippeau (Lerer Hippeau Ventures), Alfred Lin (Sequoia Capital), Rich Miner (Google), Brian Pokorny (SV Angel) and Alexia Tsotsis (TechCrunch).
