​About Espresso

​​Espresso Systems is the lead developer of Espresso: the coordination layer for cross-chain transactions and interactions. We are building a network and marketplace that enables chains to interoperate seamlessly, without sacrificing scale or sovereignty. Chains that are fueled by Espresso create better experiences for their users and capture more value for their ecosystems.

​About Agglayer and Polygon Labs

​As an open-source, neutral public good, the AggLayer connects chains together to create a multichain ecosystem that feels like using a single chain. The AggLayer unifies siloed liquidity and blockspace in a positive-sum tradeoff: Interoperability across chains that create a flywheel of mutual success. A rich network of builders such as Polygon Labs and Espresso Systems are currently building key features of the Agglayer.

​About Caldera

With over 50 modular rollups in its ecosystem, Caldera's Metalayer unifies Ethereum rollups, fostering seamless inter-rollup coordination, communication, and resource sharing.
