4 days left: How TechCrunch Founder Summit helps you make more useful connections to scale TechCrunch Events 2:36 PM PDT · October 31, 2026 Networking shouldn’t mean walking into a crowded room and hoping you happen to meet the right person. At TechCrunch Founder Summi t, presented by Fidelity Private Shares, founders and VCs have several ways to make the connections they build beyond the sessions more intentional.

The Founder Summit Networking Lounge, powered by Braindate, gives attendees the ability to schedule one-on-one and small-group conversations around specific topics.
Bring a question, offer your own experience, and find people who want to have the same conversation.
Braindate also gives attendees an opportunity to continue ideas that start elsewhere in the program.
Hear Kent Bennett discuss product-market fit, then connect with another founder wrestling with the same question.
Watch founders put their pitches in front of investors, then compare notes with someone preparing for a raise.
Hear Chase Garbarino talk about building in Boston, then meet other founders doing exactly that.
The sessions can start the conversation. Networking gives you somewhere to take it next.
The connections aren’t limited to one lounge. Roundtables create smaller, topic-driven conversations. Breakout sessions are where on-stage panels address questions from those in the room. The Expo Hall brings attendees and partners together throughout the day. The closing reception gives founders, investors, and operators time to continue conversations without rushing to another session.
And the TechCrunch Founder Summit experience extends beyond the venue and event day with official Side Events happening throughout Boston all week long.
Sometimes the most useful thing you leave an event with isn’t another page of notes. It’s a person you didn’t know that morning.
Just four days remain until TechCrunch Founder Summit arrives at Boston’s SoWa Power Station! Don’t miss out on ticket savings, a full day of impactful networking, and practical takeaways designed to propel your idea and startup forward. Register now to save up to $100 on your pass and get a second pass free.
