## What Is Ultra (UOS)?

[Ultra](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ultra/) is a publishing platform and ecosystem for video games and video game content. Ultra’s mission is to do away with the current monopoly held by publishing platforms like Steam and provide new opportunities to game developers, players, and influencers. Ultra promises a solution that is more equitable to players and developers alike. Players can benefit from immediately playable games, earn UOS by using the platform, and access platform-exclusive games. At the same time, developers benefit from access to more effective marketing tools and the potential for 20% higher sales revenue. 

Besides content and game publishing, Ultra offers a demand-side and service-side platform for advertisers, the opportunity for players to resell their used games, and a platform-exclusive app. 


## Who Are the Founders of Ultra?

Ultra was incubated by an experienced team of video game industry veterans who have a successful track record working for major Western and Asian companies. David Hanson, the company’s co-founder, has 18 years of experience founding major gaming companies, including a $100+ million USD game console project later acquired by Xiaomi. Nicolas Gilot, the company’s second co-founder, has successfully multiplied the revenue of several video game and mobile app-related projects like Plants vs Zombies, Highnoon, and The Economist. 

Ultra is advised by current and former professionals with work experience at AMD, Microsoft, and a number of elite investment banks. In total, the company consists of 50+ full-time collaborators with over 150 years of combined experience at companies like Apple, Dell, Google, Microsoft, and Ubisoft.
