Will Crystal City Become the Mid-Atlantic's New Tech Hub?
Noted Silicon Valley investor Paul Singh (right, with Vornado/Charles E. Smith's Mitchell Schear and Va. Gov. Terry McAuliffe) opened his new $50M Crystal Tech Fund in Crystal City a few weeks ago, and several high-growth tech firms have already joined him in his cool creative-style HQ at 2231 Crystal Dr. Dramatically overlooking Reagan National and DC's monuments, Singh says he selected Crystal City “because it offers the urban appeal that attracts major tech talent." Mitchell says "Crystal City is all about providing the best possible environment to grow companies and have them flourish." Tech Fund firms include the much buzzed about conference-call app Speek and event engagement platform NVite, whose founder sold his last company to Twitter.
