Sibermerdeka was initiated by 2 friends, and was inspired by the hackerspace movement in Germany during one members' experience of studying there. The first physical space was established in 2024, on the 3rd floor of a shoplot building along Jalan Pudu. Since mid-2026, the hackerspace has moved upstairs to 392C Jalan Pudu, and have been sharing a space with Petra Pudu Rooftop Cafe ever since.
