Emmett Hollyer, General Manager and Head of Solana Mobile, is focused on bridging the gap between decentralized technology and the global mobile market. Since joining Solana Labs in 2022, he has overseen the business’ growth from the initial Saga launch to the massive rollout of Seeker in 2025, which secured over 150,000 pre-orders.
