HTE

Hepton was founded by Hepton Labs where it was led by Kay Hakimie, Emre Aslan, and Ismail Abinting. Three of them, have extensive experience in programming, entrepreneurship, and financial analysis.

The three met while they were just a freelance developers inside the Open-Source Centralized Exchange forum known as Peatio in the middle of 2020. From that time, the three of them already create a developer organisation for any client who wants to hire additional developers for tweak on their Web3 project. In early 2022, the three of them decided to build a decentralized protocol and at the same time bring scaling solutions for Ethereum network.

This team became what is now the Hepton Labs, and employs more than 10 developers, including developers across multiple experience and working remotely across different region. Hepton Labs has been incubated by Malaysian Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) (A Malaysian Government Agency) in 2022 and IceTea Labs, a Web3 startup incubator. Based on this incubation, Hepton Labs has been nominated a Server Grant by Amazon AWS Activate to support the Hepton PoS at its early stage.
