Exhibition Area

Companies can book exhibition space until October 17 to showcase their products, attract potential clients, and establish partnerships with leading investors and technology leaders.

Benefits of having an exhibition booth: direct contact with over 10,000 professionals, presentation of your technologies and products, and opportunities to build investor relationships.

In 2024, the Central Eurasia pavilion, organized by Silkroad Innovation Hub at TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 in San Francisco, featured 24 startups from Central Eurasian countries. This experience was an important step in strengthening cooperation and developing the region’s technological ecosystem.

Last year, our team also collaborated with Silkroad Innovation Hub and participated in their initiatives. We supported the AlchemistX & Silicon Valley Residency and Road to Battlefield programs, aimed at developing and internationally promoting startups from Central Eurasia.

This year, the winners of Road to Battlefield 2025 — Polygraf AI, QuickShipper, Surfaice, and ArtSkin — will present their projects at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, strengthening Central Eurasia’s position on the global technology map.
