Our Story

In 1996, while working together at a video compression startup in Silicon Valley, Brad Hoffert and Steve Kelsey founded LocoLabs. Combining expertise honed during Brad’s time at Sun Microsystems and Steve’s at Qualcomm, they created LocoLabs to solve tough problems in system-level development. Since then, they’ve helped drive innovation for hundreds of projects large and small, from digital video to wireless communications, custom chip design, sensor development, and Internet of Things devices.
