Results of the Hacker Space Meeting
Posted by Brett in Hacker Space, Useful on March 15, 2012
Last night I attended the first meet-up of CrashBangLabs, a hacker space that is forming here in Regina. More than 50 people attended and it looks to me like we have the critical mass needed to make this work.
The most impressive thing for me was being in the same room with over 50 like-minded people: folks who want to get their hands dirty and MAKE stuff.
A hacker space is more than just a place with tools and equipment, it’s the people who MAKE it happen. And judging from the folks I met last night, CrashBangLabs is off to a great start: almost every who attended the meeting signed up and intends to become a dues-paying member. The next steps will be incorporating the hacker space as a non-profit organization and finding a suitable location.
Hats off to David Gerhard and Matt Haines who got the ball rolling, and everyone who attended. You folks MADE my day!
