Gov. Murphy talks a lot about what he calls the ‘innovation economy.’

Today, he signed a bill that re-establishes a tech-oriented commission that was defunded in 2010.

“In 1985, a dear friend, a guy who has been a mentor to me, Gov. Tom Kean, created the New Jersey Commission on Science and Technology. As he said then, putting high-tech facilities in our New Jersey universities and leading centers will ensure a high-tech workforce that’s second to none. Those words ring true to the letter even 33 years on,” Murphy said.
