We are excited to partner with Paul Singh on his 2016 Tech Tour visit to Pittsburgh. Paul is a nationally known investor/entrepreneur who was an early partner of 500 startups and has overseen investments in hundreds of companies across 35 countries. Paul is driving across North America this year (in his Airstream trailer), and visiting cities, one week at a time, to mentor founders, meet startups for investment and engage with the local startup community. You can learn more about Paul/his tour here.

Our goals are to show Paul the exciting momentum here in Pittsburgh, introduce him to startups/founders and to have a dialogue on how to take things to the next level. We are planning a series of events to engage the community?—?we hope you come out to the events to meet Paul and show him what makes the Pittsburgh tech ecosystem so exciting!
