We are entering the home stretch of TechCrunch Disrupt NY, and we couldn’t have a better lineup to close out the show.
We’ll be joined by ClassPass’s Payal Kadakia, Bob Bowman from MLB Advanced Media, and Alexis Ohanian from Reddit and Y Combinator, among many more.
And then we head into the madness of the Disrupt Battlefield finals, where seven companies are vying for the attention of judges like John Borthwick (Betaworks), Dennis Crowley (Foursquare), Eric Hippeau (Lerer Hippeau Ventures), Alfred Lin (Sequoia Capital), Rich Miner (Google Ventures), Brian Pokorny (SV Angel) and Alexia Tsotsis (TechCrunch).
It’ll be a Wednesday to remember, and you can enjoy the magic of it right from your office, living room or Wi-Fi-enabled coffee shop.
