The 3 steps of the lab
Workshops
A series of 6 hands-on workshops, each lasting 2 hours, designed to demystify entrepreneurship and help participants acquire the basic skills needed to start a business. A certificate of completion and startup grants are offered.
Dates for the next cohort will be announced soon.
lab boutique
A pop-up shop housed in a shipping container on Jarry Street East during the summer, providing a space to test entrepreneurial ideas. All proceeds from sales go to the entrepreneurs.
Shared Commercial Space
By 2028, a shared commercial space will serve as an incubator for entrepreneurs to grow their businesses while minimizing financial burdens.
partners
This project was made possible thanks to PME MTL Centre-Est and the CJE Centre-Nord, which organized the workshop program and provided supportive guidance to the young people.
And let’s not forget the dedicated youth workers from the member organizations of the SPVM’s Neighborhood Police Station 30 Youth Roundtable.
