Our story

Hackerspace Mumbai was founded in 2011 with a simple belief: Technology grows when people share what they know.

Over the last 15+ years, we have brought together developers, students, architects, designers, founders, open-source contributors, and lifelong learners to learn, build, and grow together.

Our mission is to create opportunities for people to connect, contribute, and thrive through open-source principles and community-driven learning.

03 / What we care about

What we care about

  • Everyone was new once

    First-timers get a named host, not a badge and a shrug. If you can find the door, you can find a seat.

  • Show, don't pitch

    Demos beat decks. Talks are about what you built and what broke, not about what your company sells.

  • Open by default

    Recordings, slides, code, budgets and the handbook are public. The community should be forkable.

  • Contribution over credential

    Nobody is asked where they studied. What you help with is the only résumé that matters here.
