Mark Wahlberg will appear on the main stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 in a fireside chat with Bruce K. Lee, Founder and CEO of Keebeck Wealth Management. The session is billed as a look at Wahlberg's progression from Hollywood into business and investing.
According to the announcement, Wahlberg has built a production company, a restaurant chain, apparel and fitness ventures, a slate of angel investments, and the now 25-year-old Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation, which supports inner-city kids and teens. The conversation is expected to cover how he has developed institutional-level investing discipline, with Lee as his guide, and a growing focus on healthcare and wellness startups.
The session will also touch on where high-profile entertainers and athletes sometimes get it wrong, how Wahlberg has used trust built over his career to drive access and deal flow, and which technologies he is most focused on right now.
Disrupt 2026 takes place on October 13-15 at San Francisco's Moscone West, with more than 250 tech leaders across over 200 sessions. Ticket prices increase on September 25.
