History and Scope of NEWREP
NEWREP was created in 2002, when then Governor Scott McCallum announced the creation of the "Build Wisconsin" program. The program was designed with the goal of creating a higher standard of living and enhancing the overall economic climate in Wisconsin through cooperative regional partnerships.
NEWREP is comprised of 16 northeast Wisconsin counties plus the Menominee Tribe. While NEWREP's focus is on businesses engaged in research and the development of advanced products, NEWREP also assists businesses that use advanced technology in their production, operations or manufacturing processes.
NEWREP's members have also elected to pursue initiatives dedicated to seeking solutions in a collaborative manner that will have a regional impact. We believe that by working together we can achieve broader economic and business development objectives that will enhance the entire region's economic and business development environment and the quality of life of people living and working throughout the NEWREP area.
