NJEF
is nearly 20 years old and getting stronger each year!
New
Jersey Entrepreneurs Forum was formed in the mid-1980s
by entrepreneurs, consultants and investors involved
in the development of technology companies. The organization
has operated as a training ground for technology entrepreneurs
ever since.
In
addition to its focus on Central New Jersey and the
many technology companies in the region, NJEF has
also
been a supporter of New Jersey's technology incubators,
the NJ
Venture Fair, and the various technology transfer
programs of the NJ Commission on Science and Technology.
In
1995, having received programmatic support from the
Commission for several years, the management of NJEF
"spun-off" the program and formed the private
non-profit corporation that operates today. Originally
operating as an enterprise forum, the current NJEF mission
is more focused on training technology entrepreneurs
and providing the basic skills required to start, manage,
and finance a new company.
