Annual Meeting and Luncheon

January 15, 2015

Program

Join NAIOP Northern Virginia on January 15 for our Annual Meeting and Luncheon. When it comes to venture capital, Greater Washington falls behind other major business markets in the United States. One person who is working to change that is Paul Singh, Founder and CEO of the Disruption Corporation and Managing Partner of the Crystal Tech Fund. Singh, born, raised, educated and devoted to Northern Virginia, spent six years in Silicon Valley. While there, he co-founded an angel investment firm, 500 Startups, which has invested in over 750 companies in more than 40 countries. With the knowledge gained from his experiences starting and funding companies, he returned to Northern Virginia and is now building the Disruption Corporation, a venture capital advisory firm, and the Crystal Tech Fund. In less than a year, he is doubling his space in Crystal City and is bringing in two new partners in early 2015. Singh recently told the Washington Post that he wants to build a productivity center for entrepreneurs, which he hopes will eventually become a sustainable model for other cities.

NAIOP Northern Virginia Chairman, Mark Hassinger, West Dulles Properties, Jim Creedon, Vornado, Paul Signh, Disruption Corporation, and Victor Hoskins, Arlington County Economic Development Director.
