Ade Adepoju

Ade Adepoju is Co-founder and CEO of Subzero Labs, and one of the two lead engineers behind Rialo, the purpose-built smart blockchain. Before Subzero Labs, he was an early engineer at Mysten Labs, where he played a foundational role in building the Sui Network, and earlier worked on distributed systems at Netflix and advanced microprocessor technology at AMD. That mix of deep infrastructure experience across Web 2.0 and Web3 is part of what attracted Pantera Capital to lead Subzero Labs’ $20M seed round in 2025. Ade now leads Subzero Labs' work building the infrastructure for global neofinance, including Latch, the company's policy enablement stack for AI agents.
