Apply Now For The San Diego Meetup + Pitch-Off

9349116828_a8c3fdbf3d_z



The time has come. TechCrunch is coming to San Diego for a night of pitches, drinks and general tomfoolery. And we're looking for the area's best undiscovered startups to pitch their revolutionary ideas on our stage. Apply within.



On August 22, TechCrunch is taking over Block 16. Josh Constine, Jordan Crook, Greg Kumparak, and myself are stoked to see San Diego's best up and coming startups. We're only in town for a few days, so we're looking to make this night huge.



General admission tickets are $5 and including drinks. 21 and over only, please.



But this is more than just a meet and drink affair. This is a pitch-off. And as the attendees of our Austin and Seattle's pitch-offs will likely attest, this is an event you're not going to want to miss.



We're looking for the area's best and brightest young startups to pitch their company or idea to a few TechCrunch editors and local VCs. It's free to register, and the 30 companies selected will get free admission to the event, as well as some one-on-one time with TC editors earlier in the day.



Best yet, the winners of the pitch-off get a Disrupt SF Startup Alley package that puts them in front of the masses of Silicon Valley's elite. The runners-up get two tickets to Disrupt SF.



Apply here or in the form below. We're reviewing applications on a rolling basis so it's best to apply early. Registration closes on August 16.



San Diego is our latest stop in TechCrunch's nationwide Meetup + Pitch-Off tour. We were just in Seattle last week and found a bevy of amazing startups nestled in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest. In May, we visited Austin, Texas, and before that, we held the first Pitch-Off of 2013 in front of 1,200 people in New York. We'll be visiting Boston in November.
