Elad Gil is consistently ahead of the curve. Before most of the world had even asked ChatGPT its first question, he was already making early investments in companies like Perplexity, Character.AI, and Harvey. That is just one part of his story. His impressive track record includes seed and Series A investments in more than 30 unicorn companies. He has been involved with some of the most iconic names in technology, including Stripe, Airbnb, Coinbase, Instacart, Notion, Figma, Flexport, and GitLab.
This October, Gil will take the stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 in San Francisco for a one-on-one fireside chat. He will discuss his method for spotting breakout potential early, his approach to understanding emerging markets, and what he sees coming next in areas like AI, crypto, health tech, and enterprise SaaS.

His bestselling book, High Growth Handbook, is essential reading for startup leaders. His ability to predict market shifts is widely respected.
