Quote WHAT IS IOHK? Founded in 2015 by Jeremy Wood and Charles Hoskinson, IOHK is a technology company committed to using peer-to-peer innovations to provide financial services to the three billion people who don’t have them. We are an engineering company that builds cryptocurrencies and block chains for academic institutions, government entities and corporations. We are a decentralized company that loves small innovative teams forming and executing ideas that cause cascading disruption. WHAT IS CASCADING DISRUPTION? It’s the founding principle of IOHK. Cascading disruption is the idea that most of the structures that form the world’s financial, governance and social systems are inherently unstable and thus minor perturbations can cause a ripple effect that fundamentally reconfigures the entire system. Our company is committed to identifying and developing technology to force these perturbations in order to push towards a more fair and transparent order. WHAT PROJECTS DO WE WORK ON? Currently IOHK is studying new tools and paradigms for cryptographic research and the architecture of cryptocurrencies. More specifically, we are collaboratively developing an open source library for universal composability and the Scorex project. We also do for-profit work aligned with our mission, vision and goals. WHAT IS THE MISSION OF IOHK? We view the world as a series of giant and mostly interconnected social graphs with hundreds of complex systems embedded. Our mission is to perturb the graphs to a more connected, transparent and fair configuration for both the flow of ideas and value. WHO IS BEHIND IOHK? In addition to our founders, IOHK enjoys having a diverse, geographically distributed team of engineers, scientists, business professionals, a few teachers and open-source collaborators. We are always looking for new team members and partnerships.

It will be necessary to further study the information about the project. First of all they liked the idea to bring together developers. |
