Our company is committed to identifying and developing technology to force these perturbations in order to push towards a more fair and transparent order.

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.
