TechCrunch Startup Battlefield, in partnership with Stripe, is set to transform Sydney's startup scene on August 19. Eight Australian startups will pitch for global recognition and a shot at TechCrunch Disrupt.
The key lies in the judges: Jasmine Liew from Stripe, Brendan Hill from Ten13, and Jarron Aizen from Hapana. Each brings unique insights from scaling up, investing, or founding ventures themselves.
Prizes include $15,000 in Stripe credits for first place, plus automatic entry into TechCrunch Disrupt 2026. Second and third places receive $5,000 and $2,000 respectively, but all finalists gain invaluable exposure to the tech community.
Register now to be part of this spectacle, whether you are an investor, a hopeful founder or just someone eager to witness the future of Australian startups unfold before your eyes. The stage is set, the judges are ready—will you be there?
