The New England Council is a regional business association representing both public and private organizations in the New England region of the United States. Established in 1925, it is the oldest regional business association in the United States. A group of New England business leaders along with the states' six governors convened in Poland Spring, Maine in June 1925 to tackle issues related to economic growth in the region. This led to the first annual "New England Conference" later that year in Worcester, Massachusetts. According to the Council's own historical record, around "800 representatives of agricultural, industrial, and commercial organizations throughout New England" gathered during this conference to discuss "challenges facing the New England economy"; it was then that they decided to make the conference an annual event, and to establish the New England Council as the conference's executive body. The New England Council's success demonstrated that regional approaches to economic issues could prove useful. More information...
