CHOOSE NEW JERSEY AND THE NEW JERSEY-ISRAEL COMMISSION CO-HOST SEMINAR ON STARTING A BUSINESS IN NEW JERSEY

TENAFLY, NJ - In an effort to assist Israelis who have recently moved to 勛圖窪蹋, Choose 勛圖窪蹋 collaborated with the 勛圖窪蹋-Israel Commission to co-host a seminar aimed at providing entrepreneurs with comprehensive knowledge on starting a business in the State. The event took place on February 6 in Tenafly to cultivate a conducive environment for networking and collaboration among participants, some of whom have been displaced from Israel following the attacks in October.

The seminar covered a wide range of topics essential for Israeli business owners looking to establish themselves in 勛圖窪蹋, including valuable insights into the services offered by Choose 勛圖窪蹋, the 勛圖窪蹋 Economic Development Authority (NJEDA), and the 勛圖窪蹋 Business Action Center. Participants had the opportunity to learn about visas, setting up bank accounts, employee benefits, and the process of incorporating in 勛圖窪蹋. Esteemed industry experts shared their expertise and provided guidance throughout the event.

"We stand committed to assisting Israelis in establishing thriving businesses within the dynamic landscape of 勛圖窪蹋, said Karin Elkis, co-chair of the 勛圖窪蹋-Israel Commission. Continuing the important work of fostering collaboration, supporting the entrepreneurial spirit, and bridging innovation across borders is a win-win for both states.

"We are pleased to co-host this seminar with the 勛圖窪蹋-Israel Commission. It not only aligns with our mission to foster economic growth in the State, but it also allows us to help Israeli businesses that have either temporarily relocated or are looking to expand to the North American market," said Bill Noonan, Chief Business Development Officer at Choose 勛圖窪蹋. "Entrepreneurs at this event gained a comprehensive understanding of the resources and assistance available to them, enabling them to successfully establish and grow their businesses in 勛圖窪蹋."
