# The Team

Oku is built by the team at [GFX Labs](https://gfx.xyz/), a multi-faceted blockchain research and development company. Our participation in the industry is rooted in a strong desire to see DeFi overtake legacy finance. 

In addition to Oku, GFX Labs is a leading Uniswap delegate, having passed eight governance proposals over the last two years, including the addition of the popular 1bp fee tier, the first cross-chain governance proposal, and an advocate for Uniswap's multichain growth.

Our engineers are badass. Fast, reliable data is our main priority.

Oku's team works around the clock to ensure that decentralized exchanges can scale to the levels of their centralized counterparts, while simultaneously bridging the UX gap between DeFi and TradFi.
