| Statement by Tom Bracken, President & CEO, New Jersey Chamber of Commerce Regarding Netflix |
|
| Congratulations to Netflix on purchasing the former Fort Monmouth 292-acre site to build a state-of-the-art production facility. We salute the Governor and his team, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority and Choose New Jersey for all their efforts to bring this transformative project to this prime piece of real estate in New Jersey. When completed, the project will cost more than $900 million and create thousands of jobs for state residents. That will be quite a long-term boost to Monmouth County’s and the state’s overall economy. Netflix officials stated they chose the historic Fort Monmouth site because they were impressed by its prime location on the East Coast and since they will have access to our quality workforce. That speaks volumes to what New Jersey has to offer Netflix and other companies considering the state. |
