Funding the Padel Revolution: A Deep Dive with Sunrise Padel Capital

In this power-packed episode, Cesc and Julian sit down with Santiago and Diego, the co-founders of Sunrise Padel Capital, a pioneering investment group focused on accelerating the growth of padel clubs across the United States. From their roots in tennis to their current leadership in the padel investment space, Santi and Diego share their journey, insights, and vision for the sport.

🔍 What you'll hear in this episode:

  • How two former D1 tennis players from Mexico fell in love with padel and turned their passion into a fund.
  • Why they pivoted from opening a single club to launching a padel investment portfolio.
  • Their current portfolio of clubs in major cities like LA, Chicago, Miami, and Toronto.
  • What Sunrise looks for before investing in a club — from financials and location to leadership and scalability.
  • Their due diligence process, governance standards, and the importance of pairing business acumen with operational excellence.
  • Their ambitious plans for Fund 2: real estate ownership, tech investments, and a broader ecosystem play.

Whether you're a founder looking to open your first club, or an investor exploring the booming US padel market, this episode offers a masterclass in strategy, structure, and vision from two of the sport’s sharpest minds.
