About Us
Entrepreneurship is a critical component to growing our economy and diversifying the community. Founded in May 2016, Millworks - Centre for Entrepreneurship began a new approach to fully embrace the importance of supporting new and existing businesses in the community. With support through the City of Sault Ste. Marie, in conjunction with the Ministry of Ministry of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade, along with the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, a strong ecosystem of stakeholders and supporters has been created. This ecosystem has allowed Millworks to deliver programs and services to Sault Ste. Marie and the Algoma Region.
As a project of the City of Sault Ste. Marie, Millworks is committed to supporting businesses in the region and we aim to continuously grow to better the community. We provide individuals the access to tools, education, capital, mentorship and networking opportunities, to assist with their sustainable development as an entrepreneur. By providing shared offices, business counselling, and by connecting clients and local entrepreneurs with expert mentors, Millworks' programs help new or recently started small businesses through their most vulnerable developmental stages.
Located at 83 Huron Street (Unit 2) in Sault Ste. Marie, the Millworks occupies the south-east corner on the first floor of the Machine Shop within Mill Square. Through the inhabitation of this historic former site of St Mary's Paper, the Millworks provides a trendy and urbane home for new and up-and-coming businesses.
