For entrepreneurs searching for the perfect setting in which to launch or grow their enterprise, New Jersey is a shining example. The state offers a whole package that is designed for success thanks to its highly educated people, advantageous location, encouraging business climate, diverse economy, and great quality of life. Its wealth of resources—from substantial support networks to financial incentives—further solidifies its standing as a hub for innovation and expansion. New Jersey is one of the greatest states in the US for foreign entrepreneurs to establish themselves since it has a track record of fostering firms to thrive on a regional and international level, as demonstrated by numerous success stories. 

We're honoured to have Phil Murphy, the governor of New Jersey, Kathy Naasz, the vice president of the New Jersey Innovation Institute, and Po Chen, the founder and CEO of CancerFree, join us on this episode. We'll talk about why New Jersey is a great place for businesses, especially in the tech industry, why so many businesses use it as a springboard to enter the US market, and what the state has to offer international startups.
