ALEX RODRIGUEZ

CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF A-ROD CORP

Alex Rodriguez is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of A-Rod Corp, an investment firm that  backs world-class startups and partners with leading global companies across real estate, sports, and  entertainment. While best known as one of the world’s greatest athletes (a 14x MLB All-Star and a 2009  World Series Champion with the New York Yankees), for more than 25 years, Alex leads a team of  experts building high-growth businesses and enhancing the value of more than 30 companies in the A Rod Corp portfolio. 

Alex founded A-Rod Corp in 1995, purchasing a duplex apartment on the theory that investing his MLB  earnings wisely would protect him from the kinds of financial struggles that afflict too many professional  athletes. While he racked up extraordinary stats on the field (696 home runs and more grand slams than  any other MLB player in history), Alex simultaneously assembled an impressive team at A-Rod Corp,  bought apartment units across the southeastern U.S., and built a fully integrated real estate and  development company. In 2020, Alex joined CGI Merchant Group's hotel investment fund to acquire and  develop properties across North America and the Caribbean. 

Following his success in real estate, Alex has invested in a variety of sectors where he has expertise. He looks for long-term opportunities to provide financial capital, work alongside founders and leadership, and amplify the growth of each company.

In addition to leading A-Rod Corp, Alex is CEO of Slam Corp, a special purpose acquisition company  (SPAC) with Antara Capital Chairman Himanshu Gulati as equal partner. Slam Corp is seeking to acquire  a leader in the consumer tech, media, entertainment, and health and wellness sectors.
