About the e-SpotTM - Home for Growing Entrepreneurs,
Growing Businesses


What it is:

A physical space of over 3,000 square feet, the loft-style, contemporary venue boasts high ceilings, exposed brick, floor to ceiling windows, an energy bar, private offices, a large, café-style communal space, large boardroom and a true sense of community.

The essence of the e-spot is its members. They are a community of small business owners who are committed to sharing, supporting and cooperating in order to grow their respective businesses. The e-Spot is a place to work and a community to which to belong.


Where it is:

353 Iroquois Shore Road in Oakville (just off Trafalgar, north of the QEW), 2nd floor.


Who is behind it:

The e-spot was created by local business person Grace Attard, a well-recognized marketing strategist and business coach with over 15 years entrepreneurial experience.

The physical space was designed by:  Freeman + Freeman Design, Toronto and Construction was completed by Finishing FX.


Why it started:

Research showed that the top three problems facing entrepreneurs in Halton were:
1. feeling of isolation,
2. lack of meeting space and;
3. difficulty getting good referrals to get the best help for themselves and their businesses.

The e-spot was created to address those needs and anchor the community spirit in Oakville.


How it works:

Members receive:

• unlimited access to the community work space
• options for meeting space where you can host clients, make presentations or meet with your team at a preferred rate
• preferred rental rates for private offices by the hour or by the day
• member events hosted on site such as how-to seminars, inspirational talks or networking events
• resources and support. Walk down the hall and talk to resident experts with whatever questions you have. Membership includes a free 30 minute consultation with members of the E-Team.
