New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, during an appearance at New Jersey Institute of Technology, unveiled plans for a trade mission to East Asia this fall that will seek to generate more jobs and investment in the state.
Murphy, speaking during a business roundtable with N.J. Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Tom Bracken, said the trip “at minimum” would include stops in Japan and South Korea and take place in October. The N.J. delegation, he added, will comprise elected officials, diplomats and leaders of business, culture and higher education, including NJIT President Teik C. Lim.
