What’s at stake? The competitors will all receive invaluable exposure to investors and plenty of media attention. But only one will rise above the rest to win the glory — and earn an automatic place in the Startup Battlefield 200 at Disrupt 2023.

Not familiar with the SB 200? It’s a juried cohort of 200 early-stage startups selected by TechCrunch. Each SB 200 company receives a VIP experience that includes, for starters, exhibiting on all three days of the show — for free — plus a shot at winning $100,000.

Okay, let’s get to it. Here are the three early-stage space startups that we chose to compete in the TC Sessions: Space Pitch-off.

Arch Rift: This startup builds oxygen helmets that deploy automatically. They’re designed for use in space tourism and future space settlements and — according to the website — to help “make space safe and accessible to all.”

Plasmos: This startup is developing a reusable, affordable space tug designed to deliver up to four small satellites to anywhere in lower Earth orbit.

Fluix: Increases thermal performance in data storage and processing by utilizing an all-in-one modular liquid cooler.
