Kruncher's TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 2025 Highlights

Out of thousands of applicants, Kruncher has been selected as the final 200 to compete for TechCrunch's Startup Battlefield, part of one of the biggest startup events this year, TechCrunch Disrupt 2025.

Happening in 27 - 29 October in Moscone West, San Francisco, Kruncher competed in the fintech & entrepreneurship categories.

On the second day, Founder & CEO Francesco De Liva gave an inspiring 2 minute pitch about the revolution that Kruncher will bring for private market investing to thousands that were present. Here's a great quote:

"Kruncher is automating the full workflow for investors. In this way, we are achieving 5x higher returns by letting investors operate 10x faster."

Kruncher was not selected for this year's Startup Battlefield, but it was still an immense privilege to share the stage with other amazing startups set to revolutionize the world.

We also had a booth (C25) where we showcase the best of the platform and gave live demos to interested investors.
