Things to keep in mind

  • We do not run posts on TechCrunch that have been published elsewhere (e.g. company blog, your Medium page, another publication).
  • Attach high-resolution images (if any).
  • Include a 1-2 line bio. The bio should include your title and company affiliation (hyperlinked) and a personal Twitter handle if you have one. Do not mention your company in the posts. We understand that your expertise has been gained in part by being an executive at your organization. However, relay your expertise without promoting the interests of your company. Any mention thereof will either result in a rejection of your submission or being cut from the post upon acceptance.
  • Hyperlink source material (e.g. facts you relay, companies, etc.) in your posts. Do not include links in parentheses after the text you want linked.
  • We aspire to respond to every single submission we receive - rejections and acceptances alike. Rest assured we will contact you if we are interested in publishing your submission.
  • Still putting two spaces after a period? Stop. It.
