Calderón brings a differentiated combination of elite global sports experience, cross-border business leadership, and capital markets familiarity, strengthening the Company’s governance as it advances a long-term strategy focused on building a scalable, multi-asset platform across Europe and international markets.
“We are very pleased to welcome José Manuel Calderón to our Board at a pivotal moment in Nomadar’s evolution as a publicly traded company,” said Rafael Contreras, Executive Co-Chairman of Nomadar. “José brings a unique combination of global sports leadership, entrepreneurial experience, and public market perspective.

Over a 14-year career in the NBA, Calderón played for leading franchises including the Toronto Raptors, New York Knicks, and Los Angeles Lakers.

Internationally, Calderón is among the most accomplished players in Spanish basketball history, with multiple Olympic medals and a FIBA World Championship, reflecting sustained performance at the highest levels of global competition.
Following his playing career, Calderón transitioned into executive, advisory, and investment roles, including serving as an advisor to the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has developed an active portfolio across sports, technology, and real estate ventures and currently serves on the board of another Nasdaq-listed company, bringing public company governance experience and strategic oversight capabilities aligned with Nomadar’s next phase of growth.
