Back in February, we started calling for content — urging startup subject-matter experts to submit applications to lead roundtable discussions at TechCrunch Disrupt 2023 on September 19–21 in San Francisco.
And by crikey, answer the call they did. Literally thousands of applications, dozens of late nights and gallons of coffee later, we narrowed down the field to 17 roundtables.
