Lightera Leadership Change as Global Integration Progresses
Lightera, launched on April 1, 2025, is set to enhance its market presence under new CEO Holly Hulse. The company aims to expand in sectors like data centers and strengthen its global operational model following a successful first year.

Lightera has marked its first anniversary since launching on April 1, 2025, following the integration of Furukawa Electric Group's global fiber and cable business initiated in 2024. The company has exceeded its operational targets by enhancing its solution-based selling approach and expanding into key segments such as data centers and connectivity infrastructure.
Holly Hulse, appointed CEO and Corporate Vice President of Furukawa Electric, will focus on advancing innovation and scaling high-value segments. The leadership transition from Foad to Hulse aims to maintain continuity and leverage the foundational growth established in the past year. This shift may influence market dynamics as Lightera seeks to deepen customer relationships and enhance digital infrastructure solutions.
