People using his new mobile app, Hangoo, talk first — and then only get to see each other if there's a match.

"My belief really is that voice is the more authentic way to communicate," said Antoljak, who in 2019 earned a B.S. in business with a concentration in financial technology from NJIT's Martin Tuchman School of Management. He was also a member of Albert Dorman Honors College.

Applications are now open for local business leaders of color to join NJIT's Paul Profeta Entrepreneur-in-Residence program.

New Jersey Institute of Technology’s efforts to nurture and support businesses led by African-Americans are being recognized by a caucus of county commissioners.

The caucus, New Jersey Nineteen (NJ19), comprised of Black county commissioners, bestowed an African-American Business Champion Award to Joel S. Bloom, NJIT’s president since 2011.



Central to the university’s support for Black businesses is VentureLink, the business incubator housed under its New Jersey Innovation Institute.

Highlanders who want to start a business will soon have access to a $75,000 seed investment from the university's new Venture Fund as part of a 10-year, $6.75 million commitment funded by the NJIT endowment.

Minorities and underserved residents in Newark will soon have unique opportunities to establish high-tech businesses, based on three new programs from the VentureLink arm of NJIT's New Jersey Innovation Institute.
