Ferran is the CEO and Managing Director of Gasol16 Ventures, Pau Gasol’s business and strategic investing vehicle.
Prieto also co-founded Everest Talent Management to help a variety of athletes to maximize their “off-the-field” impact and economic opportunities.
Working with athletes is a long-term, strategic approach to their non-playing activities that not only make a mark on their sport but also “stand out from the crowd” and prioritize their broader impact on their fan base and the world.
