Schedule Interview with Media Teams

This year we’re launching startup interviews with our media partners, BeFast.TV that covers everything startup & tech in the Bay Area. BeFast.TV team will be filming and producing conference highlights and interviews with the most interesting and promising travel tech startups. Get in touch with our team to get on the list for an interview with your startup.

Don’t Miss Killer Keynotes Lineup

TTC18 lineup is so good that we’re seriously worried about our team getting distracted from running the conference — the talks are top notch and will deliver tons of fresh perspectives. Join Keynotes Day on June 9th to learn more on Open Innovation, Blockchain Opportunities in Travel, Smart Cities, Future of Mobility and other forward-looking topics.

Participate in Community Talks and Panels

When we say we’re community driven — we mean it. Community talks and panels on June 9th is our way to give voice to more founders and enable the discussion on peer-to-peer level. We’re currently collecting top hottest topics from our startups community and matching the topics with the founders who want to talk about those on stage. To apply and participate in Community talks & panels — get in touch.

Join us at the Pitch Competition & Startup Awards

June 7th is your chance to learn what fellow startup teams are working on — come watch 15 finalists pitch to win prizes, meet the judges and see additional demos from 20 startups that got the most interest from our judges and community.

This year we’re including a nice bonus for the startups attending the pitch competition — reverse pitches — our judges will pitch back to startups the solutions that they would like to see built. Don’t miss these valuable perspectives for your startup!

All TTC18 pass holders can freely attend the pitch competition on June 7 and Startup Awards during the Official TTC18 After Party on June 9.

Join the movement & be on the front line of moving the industry forward

Last but not least — do you like what we do and what we stand for? Join our team to organize events and programs benefiting travel tech community.

Our entire team is volunteers, all ticket sales go towards covering conference expenses and all our initiatives are grassroots — run by founders, engineers and product people working on moving the industry forward. This is an unprecedented phenomenon in the industry and TTC is an example of what a community of passionate about the future of travel tech people can do when we join forces on a shared mission.

Get your TTC18 passes and be part of the only independent, community driven, not for profit technology conference for travel startups.
