Investor interest and media exposure: Investors looking for future unicorns and journalists looking for the next big story will head straight to the show floor to meet and greet the SB 200 founders.
Workshops and pitch training: SB 200 founders will be invited to exclusive workshops and masterclasses in the weeks leading up to Disrupt, including special training from TechCrunch staff.
