TechCrunch Founder Summit Set for Nov. 4 at Boston's SoWa Power Station

TechCrunch will hold its Founder Summit 2026 on November 4 at the SoWa Power Station in Boston, according to TechCrunch.

The one-day conference is aimed at startup founders, investors and operators, and is organized around two main stages, Build and Impact, along with roundtable discussions, live pitch sessions and an exhibitor hall, the publication said.

Scheduled speakers include Steve Fredette, co-founder of the Boston restaurant software company Toast, who is set to discuss scaling a company through shifting markets; Kent Bennett of Bessemer Venture Partners, on product-market fit; and Dave Balter of True Ventures and Edisyl, on what makes an investor pitch lead to a follow-up meeting.

Attendees can also schedule one-on-one and small-group meetings through Braindate, a networking platform being used in the event's networking lounge, TechCrunch said. Passes include access to breakout sessions, roundtables, the expo hall and post-event session materials, and the organizer is offering a second pass at no charge with each ticket purchase.

SoWa Power Station, a former power plant in Boston's South End, is used as an event venue.
