Purpose
A three-year project to renovate a co-working industrial space that will offer access to industrial equipment, skills training, and business supports for Yellowknife’s business community. The project will support skills development, job creation, innovative new businesses, and build on previous efforts made by Makerspace YK to provide access to equipment through a tool lending library. The project’s activities include required renovations, such as upgrades to mechanical systems, electrical work, and interior demolition. The space will be divided into office/tenant spaces and work spaces to accommodate the mixed needs of members who use the Makerspace and it will be outfitted with a range of industrial tools that will be accessible to members.
