New England Council, Inc.
About
The New England Council is a non-partisan alliance of businesses, academic and health institutions, and public and private organizations from all six New England states, working to promote economic growth and quality of life across the region. Founded in 1925, it is the nation’s oldest regional business organization. Headquartered in Boston with a fully staffed office in Washington, D.C., it connects members with one another and with federal policymakers.
Members span energy, financial services, health care, higher education, technology, telecommunications and transportation. The Council convenes regular programs such as Capitol Hill Reports with members of Congress, Politics & Eggs breakfasts with political figures, and talks with diplomats, and it produces the Inside the Corner Office interview series with regional executives. When there is strong bipartisan consensus, it advocates for federal policies that support the region’s economy, and it files comment letters with federal agencies.
