Ryan Shea

CEO and Co-Founder, Caro

FTF

Ryan Shea is the CEO and cofounder of Caro, a next-generation auction platform established in 2022 aiming to disrupt traditional pricing practices within the retail industry.

Born in Denver, Colorado, Shea has been an entrepreneur his entire life. He started his first company at the age of 10 and by the age of 15 was organizing large-scale events such as Boulder Startup Week and TEDxBoulder. While in high school, Shea was tapped by Radar Relay, a decentralized exchange built on Ethereum; Gitcoin, a granting and bounty platform; and Decentraland, one of the first metaverse protocols.

While studying Computer Science at Yale University, Shea joined Solana Labs in 2019 after their Series A 20M fundraise and was instrumental in growing the protocol to a nearly $80B market cap in 2021. His leadership roles in product engineering, operations, and community helped launch and grow Solana worldwide. Ryan was instrumental in launching protocols that transacted billions in NFT sales, helped drive ecosystem growth that led to over $500M in venture capital fundraising, and elevated Solana’s brand to become one of the premier visual identities in crypto.
