About NJNMA

Who We Are

The New Jersey Naval & Maritime Alliance (NJNMA) is a strategic integrator advancing shipbuilding, defense logistics, and maritime revitalization across South Jersey.

We don’t build ships. We build alignment by connecting shipbuilders, government agencies, developers, and regional partners to activate underused infrastructure for national security and local economic strength.

A Vision Born from Experience

Founded by Brian Curry, a former federal defense program manager and South Jersey native, NJNMA bridges the gap between policy vision and industrial execution.

Drawing on years of experience supporting Ford-class aircraft carriers and working across public and private sectors, NJNMA brings credibility, urgency, and coordination to a critical national challenge: rebuilding America’s naval readiness.

What Makes NJNMA Different

Site readiness without speculation
NJNMA identifies sites that are already prepared or near-ready for defense-grade activity.
Public-private integration
We align stakeholders across levels: federal, state, local, industrial, and educational.
Mission-first, market-smart
We focus on national defense needs first, but with smart planning for job creation, economic expansion, and long-term resilience in New Jersey.
