The famous Startup Battlefield competition will provide the enrolled startups a unique opportunity to pitch in front of the investors. But, there is more to that.

As the organizers announced this week, there are few spots left for the TechCrunch Hackathon event – the event made for the coders. You can still apply and become part of one of the teams that in 24 hours should find a solution to real-world problems. The 10 best teams will compete once again during day 2. The winning team will be awarded with $5000. The participation at the Hackathon is free and every participant will receive an Innovator pass to visit the show on day two.
And this is not all! The Disrupt Berlin provides also great exhibition opportunities. The famous of them all is the Startup Alley at the Alley Expo floor. This is the place where early-stage startups showcase their products and solutions. Even though the participation is paid, the organizers choose a number of startups, called the TC Top Picks, that are given a chance to exhibit their talent for free.
