ASSEMBLY COMMERCE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
COMMITTEE
STATEMENT TO
ASSEMBLY, No. 4751
STATE OF NEW JERSEY
DATED: OCTOBER 20, 2022
The Assembly Commerce and Economic Development Committee
reports favorably Assembly Bill No. 4751.
This bill requires the NJ Business Action Center, in the
Department of State, to establish a mentorship program to match
entities with experience in particular areas with new entities seeking to
learn from entities that are experienced in those areas.
The goal of the program is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge to
confront common challenges in an evolving economy. Under the
program, participating mentor entities will be encouraged to share with
mentee entities those mentor entities’ experiences transitioning to a
new form of commerce, such as transitioning from brick-and-mortar to
online or transitioning to the sale of a product or service that the
mentor entity did not previously have experience selling, and
suggestions to avoid common pitfalls when transitioning to a new form
of commerce.
The bill requires the center to seek the assistance of chambers of
commerce and other local organizations to solicit the participation of
businesses in the program and to compile a list of mentor and mentee
businesses to be matched by the center. The center is also required to
establish the terms and conditions by which entities may participate in
the program including requirements for minimum quarterly and in-
person meetings between mentor and mentee entities.
