A hackerspace is a place for creativity, collaboration, research, development, and, of course, education. It is more than just a physical space: It is a dynamic community with ideas inspired by the Open Source philosophy.

The Idea

While our idea stems from free and Open Source ideas, our primary motivation is our desire to share our experiences with the rest of the world.

We want to share our ideas just as we share our code. We are used to sharing our data, problems and solutions remotely from our home or from our jobs. So, why do not do it face to face as well?

Values

Excellence

Be polite with everybody. Respect all people that you meet at the space, as well the space itself.

Sharing

The main operation of hackerspace is to promote collaboration by sharing projects, codes, and ideas with others. The motto is, inspired by Creative Commons, "I love to share".

Consensus

All decisions are the result of consensus among members. Decisions on management of the space are taken at the monthly meetings, which are open to all.

Do-ocracy

You do not need a license to work on a project. If you want to organize an event or a workshop on an Open-Source or Open-Hardware project, do not expect it to be organized by someone else. Take the initiative and do it!

Financing

The HSGR is self-funded mostly from of the Members. If you want to contribute, you can make a Contribution. All financial information is posted on the board inside the space.
