OpenZeppelin is excited to announce a brand new partnership with Sui.
This collaboration brings OpenZeppelin’s proven smart contract development and security expertise to one of the most innovative blockchain environments. Together, OpenZeppeliin and the Sui are building the primitives that empower developers to explore the full potential of the Move programming language combining speed, composability, and security.
Our CTO, Jonathan Alexander said “OpenZeppelin's collaboration with Sui reinforces our commitment to strengthen the foundations of secure smart contract development. Together, we are building the libraries and tools that will help Move developers innovate with confidence”.
Sui introduces a transformative platform for blockchain development, harnessing the power of the Move language to enable parallel execution, object composability, and efficient resource management. With OpenZeppelin, Move developers will have access to trusted, audited smart contracts libraries and tools that will make it easier and safer to build on Sui.
“Sui was built to empower developers with the performance, composability, and security they need to launch applications that scale to millions of users,” said Christian Thompson, Managing Director of the Sui Foundation. “By partnering with OpenZeppelin, we’re giving builders on Sui access to trusted, production-grade smart contract libraries that raise the bar for security and reliability. This collaboration strengthens the foundation developers rely on to create meaningful, user-first products across finance, gaming, and beyond.”
This partnership builds on OpenZeppelin’s long-standing commitment to security and developer empowerment. With over $30 trillion in onchain value transferred through OpenZeppelin Contracts, Move developers can expect those same smart contract standards will be coming to Sui, unlocking new possibilities for builders across all verticals, including DeFi, gaming, and real-world assets.
Throughout the partnership, OpenZeppelin will introduce an audited suite of smart contract primitives designed to support tokens, NFTs, RWAs, and a broad range of DeFi applications, as well as the OpenZeppelin Contracts Wizard and Contracts MCP for Move.
OpenZeppelin and Sui will also collaborate on initiatives that make it easier for developers to onboard, experiment, and deploy with confidence, including technical education, community programs, and real-world showcases of what secure Move development can achieve.
OpenZeppelin’s partnership with Sui represents a shared commitment to build the foundation for a more secure, scalable, and accessible decentralized world. By combining OpenZeppelin’s battle-tested smart contract frameworks with Sui’s unique Move-based architecture, this collaboration lays critical groundwork for simplifying innovation. Developers in the Move ecosystem will now have access to more robust and secure infrastructure, making it easier to turn ambitious ideas into products people can rely on.
