Founders

About the founders of Genode Labs

The founders of Genode Labs are two former researchers of the TU Dresden OS group, who gained thorough hands-on experience about microkernel-based system architectures, user-level device drivers, protocol stacks, and security applications during their research. Our experiences shaped the vision for a new OS architecture that allows for dynamic workloads but still retains strong security properties. In 2006, we turned our vision into reality by implementing the Genode OS Framework, at that time codenamed "Bastei". The achieved results had been the primary motivation for further pushing this young technology by forming an independent startup company.
