Polygon Labs Elevates Aishwary Gupta to Global Head of Business

Mumbai – Polygon Labs today announced the elevation of Aishwary Gupta to Global Head of Business, marking a significant leadership milestone as the company accelerates its expansion into regulated stablecoin payments and next-generation global money movement.

Gupta, who has been instrumental in building Polygon’s institutional and enterprise partnerships worldwide, steps into the role at a pivotal moment as blockchain-based financial infrastructure gains increasing regulatory acceptance and commercial adoption across global markets.

Reflecting on his journey at Polygon Labs, Aishwary Gupta said,
“When I joined Polygon, I believed blockchain would fundamentally reshape how money moves. What I didn’t fully anticipate was how quickly that conviction would be tested and validated. Every partnership, every late-night proposal, and every breakthrough moment with a global institution reinforced one thing—the world is ready for better money infrastructure.”

In his expanded role, Gupta will lead global business strategy, enterprise partnerships, and ecosystem expansion, as Polygon Labs advances its vision for the Open Money Stack—a vertically integrated platform designed to enable regulated stablecoin payments and seamless global money movement.

This next phase is further strengthened by Polygon Labs’ recent acquisitions of Coinme and Sequence, significantly enhancing its capabilities across fiat access, wallet infrastructure, and stablecoin settlement. Key components of the Open Money Stack include:

  • Licensed fiat on- and off-ramps across 48 U.S. states through Coinme
  • Enterprise-grade smart wallets and one-click cross-chain transactions powered by Sequence
  • Stablecoin settlement with fast, predictable finality on Polygon’s network
  • Over $2.2 trillion in on-chain value transferred to date

Together, these capabilities aim to eliminate longstanding friction in global payments by removing dependencies on correspondent banking, reducing settlement delays, and bypassing traditional cutoff times—while integrating seamlessly with existing financial systems.

“The vision is simple: empower anyone, anywhere to move money instantly,” Gupta added. “No correspondent banks. No settlement delays. Payments that settle in seconds. The next three years will define how money moves for the next thirty, and I’m stepping into this role ready to lead from the front.”
