TechCrunch Disrupt. If you win, you pocket $50,000, but also a bunch of angels of VCs will court you to invest.

It's not that hard, just one chance in a thousand.

If they give away 50k without requiring equity, what's in it for them?

A bunch of cash from the conference. They're making a ton off these events.

Yup, TechCrunch has three Disrupt conferences per year. The next one is slated for September 27th-29th.
