NJ TECH CORNER: Synchronoss Technologies
NJ Tech Weekly is pleased to announce the introduction of a new feature called NJ Tech Corner. Each month, we will feature a publicly held tech company and offer our readers a snapshot of who is in control of these companies, their current valuations, and other pertinent information that provides a more informed picture of them. NJ Tech Corner signifies our ongoing commitment to provide high-quality editorial coverage of New Jersey’s technology sector that can’t be found elsewhere. We’d like to thank Synchronoss for its cooperation in being NJ Tech Corner’s first featured company. NJ Tech Corner is researched and written by NJ Tech Weekly contributor Marc Weinstein. We hope you enjoy NJ Tech Corner and would welcome any reader feedback.
