HubCityLabs

HubCityLabs is a hackerspace, sometimes called a makerspace, hackspace, hacklab, located in Moncton, Canada. Its creation has been inspired and modeled after the many other Hackerspaces around Canada, the United States and Europe.

About

HubCityLabs was established in early 2012 to fill the gap of a hackerspace in the Moncton area. At the time there wasn't another hackerspace in Atlantic Canada. Moncton's nickname, "the HubCity" served as a starting point for the name, and HubCityLabs Hackerspace was born.

A few months after their first meeting, the group sorted through the paperwork and became a registered non-for-profit organization. Their mission is to create an environment where people could collaborate on ideas, share resources and talents, and learn from each other—all within a social environment.

Notable Mentions

  • 375 Million pageviews on a Hackerpsace Budget, which describes how a not-for-profit organization can serve large amounts of traffic on a shoestring budget.
