Introduction I have run 3 businesses over the past 20 years: a non-profit industrial development corporation, a frozen foods manufacturer and a garden products importer and retailer. I am now working in partnership with my wife, Judy (hence J2 Partners). We intend to operate J2 as a broad business consultancy, both for businesses we develop and as consultants for others. Our main project at present involves developing a property we owned with a commercial building that will be certified green. More at http://www.reneerealty.net/greenworks.html
Interests One goal I have is to become further involved with business in Africa and to expand a modest investment now held in a manufacturing business in Ghana. The distance from New Jersey -- where 3 budding teenagers require attention -- limits my further involvement there In my space time find collaborators and write business plans for interesting businesses in Ghana.
