Driving Innovation and Collaboration in New Jersey

NJII was founded in 2014 as a 501c3. As an independent, non-profit corporation, NJII is uniquely positioned to be agile, entrepreneurial and opportunistic.  NJII combines the vast resources of an R-1 university, strong and far-reaching industry and government relationships, and proven methods for building industry centric ecosystems.  Focused on results, NJII has generated over $330M in revenue during its ten years of operation. The NJII team of 100+ staff are currently organized into four cutting edge divisions that guide our initiatives: AI/ML, Defense, Entrepreneurship, Healthcare and Learning & Development. NJII and NJIT have active Commercial And Government Entity (CAGE) Codes.  CAGE code is a five-character ID number used by the Federal Government to identify businesses, organizations, and government agencies that do business with the government.

Folks are beginning to understand the value of having their health information available to any doctor who needs to see them, without resorting to outdated methods like paper mail and fax. Interoperability and data integration-including the NJHIN-are the ways that New Jersey will get there.
