Our story
In 1985, Javad Mokhbery first launched FUTEK as a one-man operation out of his one-bedroom apartment in Irvine.

Our success is built on scrappiness and rigor — we're relentlessly focused on continuously improving our quality and expertise, enabling us to create solutions that no one else has been able to execute.
