BetaBlox demo day 2016

Since launching it in 2012, BetaBlox founder Weston Bergmann has always been impressed by the caliber of firms entering his incubator.

But this year, Bergmann said he was blown away by the firms presenting at BetaBlox Demo Day celebration Monday.

“It’s kind of cliche to say this class is better than the last, but it’s true,” he said. “Every batch that we’ve had have gotten progressively better and better. … This is a really awesome batch.”

In total, 10 startups pitched their businesses to investors, area residents and fellow entrepreneurs at the National World War I Museum & Memorial. To learn more about BetaBlox and the 2016 class, check out this video with Bergmann.
