From renowned entrepreneur and ICC vice chair, Michelle Cameron, comes Dreamcatcher Executive Offices. 

Dreamcatcher Executive Offices is a coworking space designed for businesses of all sizes. With over 20 cubicles and private office spaces, they provide flexibility and convenience for entrepreneurs looking for a collaborative environment.

​The idea behind creating Dreamcatcher Executive Offices coworking space is a significant step towards fostering the growth of businesses within the community. By providing a dedicated space for entrepreneurs and professionals to collaborate and work, this initiative creates an environment that encourages innovation, networking, and economic development.
​
Such a space not only offers a physical location for businesses to operate but also serves as a hub for knowledge sharing, mentorship, and skill development. It plays a crucial role in nurturing local talent, empowering indigenous entrepreneurs, and promoting self-sufficiency. Moreover, a First Nation coworking space can attract external investments, partnerships, and opportunities, thereby contributing to the overall economic prosperity of the community.

By recognizing the importance of such a space, we can pave the way for the growth and success of businesses, ultimately leading to a thriving and sustainable future for the First Nation businesses.
