Across three days, from October 13 to 15, at Moscone West in San Francisco, the Disrupt Stage will bring together some of the biggest game-changing founders, CEOs, and investors shaping everything from AI and robotics to transportation, social media, biotech, and venture capital, alongside the next generation of founders competing live in Startup Battlefield 200. Don’t miss a single moment of these conversations shaping the future of the tech ecosystem.

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe 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. Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman 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. Science Corporation founder Max Hodak looks beyond screens at a future in which technology increasingly interacts directly with the human body, while Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley joins us for a candid conversation about AI, surveillance, and the future of public safety. And in a rare appearance, all five partners of Benchmark — Jack Altman, Peter Fenton, Chetan Puttagunta, Everett Randle, and Eric Vishria — will take the stage together, sharing what one of Silicon Valley’s most closely watched venture firms sees coming next.

Ricursive Intelligence co-founders Anna Goldie and Azalia Mirhoseini 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. On Thursday, Amazon’s Panos Panay asks what comes after the smartphone. And he’ll bring some new tech with him.

Bluesky CEO Toni Schneider and COO Rose Wang will explore whether social media can start over, while Replit CEO Amjad Masad tackles what happens to software, and the people who build it, when AI makes creating software accessible to almost anyone. Finally, Hollywood star, entrepreneur, and investor Mark Wahlberg takes the Disrupt Stage alongside Keebeck’s Bruce K. Lee to reveal how one of the world’s most recognizable celebrities is turning decades of influence, relationships, and business-building into his next act: becoming a serious investor.
