Meet the entire Disrupt Stage lineup<\/p>\n

Rivian<\/a> CEO RJ Scaringe<\/a> will unpack what it takes to build the seemingly impossible: turning an ambitious idea into a company capable of designing, manufacturing, and scaling complex physical products.<\/p>\n

Cerebras<\/a> CEO Andrew Feldman<\/a> will tackle one of the biggest questions hanging over the AI boom: Can AI keep scaling? As models demand ever more compute, energy, and capital, Feldman will explore where the current trajectory leads and what could break it.<\/p>\n

Science Corporation<\/a> founder Max Hodak<\/a> looks beyond screens at a future in which technology increasingly interacts directly with the human body, while Flock Safety<\/a> CEO Garrett Langley<\/a> joins us for a candid conversation about AI, surveillance, and the future of public safety.<\/p>\n

And in a rare appearance, all five partners of Benchmark \u2014 Jack Altman<\/a>, Peter Fenton<\/a>, Chetan Puttagunta<\/a>, Everett Randle<\/a>, and Eric Vishria<\/a> \u2014 will take the stage together, sharing what one of Silicon Valley\u2019s most closely watched venture firms sees coming next.<\/p>\n

Ricursive Intelligence<\/a> co-founders Anna Goldie<\/a> and Azalia Mirhoseini<\/a> will take us inside an even more radical possibility: AI systems that can design the hardware they run on, potentially collapsing the traditional divide between software and silicon.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Amazon\u2019s Panos Panay<\/a> asks what comes after the smartphone. And he\u2019ll bring some new tech with him. Bluesky CEO Toni Schneider<\/a> and COO Rose Wang<\/a> will explore whether social media can start over, while Replit CEO Amjad Masad<\/a> tackles what happens to software, and the people who build it, when AI makes creating software accessible to almost anyone.<\/p>\n

Finally, Hollywood star, entrepreneur, and investor Mark Wahlberg takes the Disrupt Stage<\/a> alongside Keebeck\u2019s Bruce K. Lee<\/a> to reveal how one of the world\u2019s most recognizable celebrities is turning decades of influence, relationships, and business-building into his next act: becoming a serious investor.<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s Startup Battlefield<\/p>\n

Throughout Disrupt, founders will compete live across space and physical AI, energy and manufacturing, health tech and life sciences, and enterprise and security \u2014 facing questions from some of the world\u2019s leading investors as they fight for a place in the Startup Battlefield<\/a> final.<\/p>\n

Before this year\u2019s finalists take the stage, Cellino co-founder and CEO Nabiha Saklayen, who won Startup Battlefield in 2021, returns to unveil her new product and ask a provocative question: Can you bank your biology?<\/p>\n

Then three more Battlefield alumni \u2014 Molecule.one\u2019s Piotr Byrski, Nephrogen\u2019s Demetri Maxim, and Gl\u012bd\u2019s Kevin Damoa \u2014 return to talk candidly about what happens after the pitch: the bets that paid off, the plans that changed, and what they wish they\u2019d known when they were standing where this year\u2019s finalists are now.<\/p>\n

Finally, the 2026 finalists take over the Disrupt Stage, and one company walks away as the next Startup Battlefield winner, taking home $100,000 in equity-free funding and the coveted Disrupt cup.<\/p>\n
