Dapper Labs

Dapper Labs is a blockchain venture studio founded in 2018 and best known for creating the Flow blockchain and pioneering the consumer NFT market. The company builds digital collectible platforms and consumer-facing blockchain products that emphasize real ownership without requiring users to manage technical infrastructure.

Its most notable products include NBA Top Shot, an officially licensed basketball highlight collectible platform that has processed over $1.2 billion in sales, as well as NFL ALL DAY, Disney Pinnacle, LaLiga Golazos, and the original CryptoKitties game. Dapper Labs also operates the Dapper Wallet and has more recently launched Peak Money, a consumer finance application. The company was co-founded by Roham Gharegozlou and Dieter Shirley, who previously built Axiom Zen.

The Flow blockchain, developed and maintained by Dapper Labs, has recorded over 975 million transactions and more than 42 million accounts. It serves as the underlying infrastructure for several of the company’s licensed sports and entertainment collectible products.
