[NYC, June 3, 2025] – The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA), the leading global community connecting businesses to blockchain, is charting a bold new course in 2025 with the appointment of Redwan Meslem as Executive Director and the addition of representatives L2BEAT and Lido DAO to its Board of Directors.
This strategic realignment solidifies the EEA’s commitment to bridging global enterprise and Ethereum technology, aligning with its mission to unify technical excellence, real-world use cases, and ecosystem education.
Paul Brody, EEA Chairman and global blockchain leader at EY explained the new appointments.
“We are delighted to welcome Redwan and add new members to the Board. This marks further alignment of the EEA around the public Ethereum ecosystem and preparation of new programs to help accelerate business on-boarding into the ecosystem.”
Redwan Meslem, who joined the EEA as Executive Director in January 2025, brings a unique blend of enterprise and Ethereum-native experience to the alliance. Prior to joining the EEA, Redwan served as Program Lead at ChainSafe Systems, where he led various public good and infrastructure projects such as the Web3.js library. His earlier career includes leadership roles in aerospace, defense, and banking—making him uniquely positioned to guide enterprises through the adoption of decentralized infrastructure.
“We are thrilled to welcome L2BEAT to the EEA Board,” said Meslem, Executive Director of the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. “They have such a clear vision of the L2 scalability roadmap, and they’re a key partner in helping enterprises understand and navigate this rapidly evolving landscape.”
L2BEAT, widely recognized as Ethereum’s most trusted data aggregator for Layer 2 scaling solutions, joins the EEA Board alongside blockchain leaders including Consensys, Microsoft, EY, JPMorgan Chase, Arche Capital, and Blockworks. Their expertise will be instrumental as the EEA continues developing programs to accelerate enterprise adoption and educate businesses on Ethereum’s rapidly evolving technical landscape.
“We see the EEA as the business development arm Ethereum has been waiting for,” said Krzysztof Urbanski, Head of Partnerships at L2BEAT. “With the new leadership and direction, the EEA is primed to boost enterprise adoption. We encourage all L2 ecosystems to join and leverage EEA, and I’m very excited to work with Redwan and the Board to make this vision a reality.”
A representative from Lido DAO, which governs Ethereum’s largest liquid staking protocol, also joins the Board at this pivotal moment. Known for its role in democratizing staking access and supporting Ethereum’s decentralization, Lido DAO brings expertise that will enhance the EEA’s focus on building trusted bridges between decentralized finance (DeFi) and institutional stakeholders.
Meslem said: “As a champion of Ethereum and a leader in institutional adoption, Lido brings invaluable expertise and perspective to our leadership team. Their mission is to deliver simple, secure, and decentralized staking solutions. The addition of Lido to our Board strengthens our ability to serve as the definitive bridge between the Ethereum ecosystem and enterprise organizations worldwide.”
Kean Gilbert, Head of Institutional Relations at the Lido Ecosystem Foundation, said: “Ethereum staking is becoming increasingly important for enterprises, especially as financial institutions and ETF issuers expand their digital asset offerings. Joining the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance board gives me a chance to help these businesses integrate staking in clear, practical ways. I’m looking forward to supporting that effort.”
