Regions tend to change geographic boundaries over time, but the New North region of Wisconsin has held together for the last 15 years. One of the secrets? This region was formed at the request of the private sector and the financial support followed.
In this episode, recorded on site at the Mid America EDC Conference in downtown Chicago, Jason interviews Barb LaMue, Executive Director of New North, Inc. They talk details of funding, partnering with local economic development professionals, and structuring a regional effort that will stand the test of time.
Special thanks to the Mid America EDC group for partnering with this podcast to record on-site at the annual Competitiveness Conference.
