Brian Ardinger, managing director of the NMotion accelerator, has announced that this year’s Demo Day keynote speaker will be Paul Singh.
“As an investor in early stage technologies and startup community advocate, Paul has a pulse on startups and startup communities around the world,” said Ardinger. “He’s a wicked smart guy who’ll be talking about the trends and growing intersection of venture capital, high-growth startups and economic development.”
Singh is a Managing Director at 1776 and a General Partner in 1776’s Seed Fund. Prior to 1776, Paul was the founder of Disruption Corporation (acquired by 1776) and general partner of Disruption’s post-seed venture capital arm, Crystal Tech Fund.

NMotion will host its 3rd annual Demo Day with their latest group of up and coming startups on July 28th. The event will take place at the Rococo Theatre in downtown Lincoln from 5:30 pm to 9:00pm.
“We encourage people to get their tickets, come out and enjoy the event.” said Ardinger. “Last year we were over capacity with 415 people in attendance, so we’ve moved to a larger venue and we expect to see more than 400 people again at this year’s event.”
