The organization was created in late 2005 in order to facilitate regional cooperation and economic development, while encouraging educational attainment and diversity and supporting an entrepreneurial climate. ["New slogan, new push on development," Milwaukee Journal Sentinel 12/8/2005] Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle cited The New North as one of the beneficiaries of the Midwestern Governors Association (MGA) Energy Security and Climate Change Agreement that he signed in November 2007.

The New North, Inc. hosts an annual summit to discuss the progress of the organization, as well as opportunities to grow the region's economy. ["Hundreds Attend Annual New North Summit," "WisBusiness.com", 12/16/2007]
