The international holding company Brera Holdings PLC from Ireland has announced its name change to Solmate and unveiled a large-scale project to create infrastructure for the Solana ecosystem in Abu Dhabi. The implementation of this initiative has been made possible by raising $300 million through a private placement of shares, led by the investment group Pulsar Group in collaboration with ARK Invest, the Solana Foundation, and RockawayX.

Solmate will become the first Solana validator in the region
Solmate plans to invest in staking and accumulating Solana (SOL) tokens, as well as deploy a robust server infrastructure in Abu Dhabi. This will enable the company to become the first Solana validator in the Middle East, opening new opportunities for local investors to earn income directly from the network’s operations.
Leading Solmate will be former top executive and chief legal advisor of the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange, Marco Santori, who emphasized in his address:
“Solmate is not just another treasury. It will implement a sustainable differentiated strategy in a crowded segment of similar DATs, creating real crypto infrastructure in the UAE. Our stakeholders have a deep, long-term conviction in the Solana ecosystem and will require us to accumulate SOL in both bullish and bearish markets.”
Renowned experts join the board of directors of Solmate
The board of directors of Solmate includes world-renowned economist and Nobel laureate Dr. Arthur Laffer, as well as the CEO of RockawayX, Viktor Fischer. Arthur Laffer emphasized the importance of a stable currency for the economy and noted the role of digital assets as a return to private money based on clear rules. Viktor Fischer, in turn, highlighted that RockawayX has believed in Solana’s potential to become the leading blockchain network for global financial markets from the very beginning.
Additionally, the CEO of Pulsar Group, Alyazi al-Khattal, expressed his belief that the launch of Solmate will be a key element in the digital transformation of the region, as well as contribute to the development of the developer community and stimulate blockchain innovation in the UAE.
It is worth noting that recently a number of companies, including Helius Medical Technologies, Pantera Capital, and Forward Industries, have also reported significant investments in Solana tokens, indicating a growing interest in this ecosystem among global market players.
