Mark’s track record overseeing complex financial operations and regulatory matters at firms like XBTO and GFI Group gives us great confidence in his ability to help drive the next chapter of value creation at Forward.”

Mark Brazier noted that “Forward Industries has established itself as the definitive leader in public-market Solana treasury strategy, and I am thrilled to join the team at such a pivotal moment.
