Former Head of Capital Markets Solomon Tesfaye to drive enterprise and institutional partnerships as Aptos hits new growth milestones
Aptos Labs, a high-performance blockchain technology company focused on building and developing on the Aptos blockchain, announced today the appointment of Solomon Tesfaye as Chief Business Officer. He was previously Head of Capital Markets at the company.
Tesfaye’s appointment comes at a pivotal moment for Aptos. The Aptos network has surpassed $540 million in tokenized real-world assets. Institutional integrations have doubled since the start of 2025, and greater regulatory clarity in the US around tokenization of assets is expected to further accelerate adoption. Together, these developments mark a critical inflection point for institutional engagement..
Solomon brings a strong track record in capital markets, led Aptos’ real world asset strategy and has played a key role in building relationships with major financial and technology firms, like Blackrock, Franklin Templeton, and Apollo. Over the past ten years, he has held senior roles at the intersection of investment banking, venture capital, and the tokenization of real-world assets, working across a broad range of asset classes globally. He initially joined Aptos Labs to lead its capital markets initiatives. Additionally, during his tenure, he built key relationships with asset managers seeking to launch Aptos-linked exchange-traded products in Europe, U.S. spot ETFs, and other crypto-linked products.
In this new role, Solomon will focus on:
- Drive Aptos adoption and expansion globally through partnerships with institutions and other market participants within fintech, payments, trading, and asset management
- Shape Aptos’s competitive positioning in the global blockchain ecosystem by navigating regulatory landscapes, leading strategic alliances, advancing business initiatives, and contributing to industry thought leadership
- Leading efforts to align product offerings with market demand and manage digital asset strategies for scalable business impact
- Identify and lead initiatives that open new markets and use cases
“Solomon has been critical in shaping our Global Trading Engine vision, and forging the partnerships that will help make it a reality,” said Avery Ching, Co-Founder and CEO at Aptos Labs. “As CBO, he’ll be key to scaling that work, bringing more institutions, markets, and real-world use cases onto Aptos as global web3 adoption continues to accelerate.”“It’s a privilege to take on this role at such a pivotal moment, as regulatory clarity and market momentum align. With the U.S. nearing the completion of frameworks for next-generation financial services, Aptos Labs is well-positioned to lead the shift to on-chain assets and help shape the infrastructure of tomorrow’s global markets,” said Solomon Tesfaye, Chief Business Officer at Aptos Labs. “I’m excited to forge the partnerships and integrations that institutions and other market participants need to fully harness Aptos’ tokenization capabilities at scale.”
