AERISIO welcomes Urko Cantalapiedra as Commercial Director, Spain
Abigail Mela ·
AERISIO has appointed Urko Cantalapiedra as Commercial Director, Spain. The appointment reflects the company’s deepening presence across Southern Europe and focus on the Spanish market. Cantalapiedra’s appointment comes in advance of the Spanish premiere of an AERISIO Oasis in a major metropolitan destination in autumn 2026.
Cantalapiedra brings more than 20 years of commercial leadership across energy, mobility, and retail. He joins AERISIO from Veltium Smart Chargers, the Spanish EV-charging manufacturer, where he served as Chief Commercial Officer, leading commercial and marketing strategy through a period of rapid growth. Before Veltium, he spent more than two decades at MediaMarkt España, where he led the group's Energy Business unit, covering electricity, gas, solar, and e-mobility across Spain nationally, as well as operating as a Managing Director running large-format retail operations across Barcelona, Valencia, Bilbao, and Girona. Cantalapiedra brings extensive experience owning P&L.
At AERISIO, Cantalapiedra will own and lead commercial development across Iberia's commercial and residential real estate, public-sector, and private luxury markets, to foster new business partnerships and scale Oasis activation across portfolios, cities, and estates.
"I am passionate about cities and real estate, and the power of technology and smart infrastructure to revitalize civic pride and commerce. AERISIO is approaching a category that's normally slow and custom — cooling placemaking fountains — with an engineering discipline that transforms them into fast, smart, modular products. I couldn’t be happier to develop and scale this premium architectural solution across Iberia." — Urko Cantalapiedra, Commercial Director, Spain
"Urko has spent two decades opening markets and building commercial functions from the ground up, in industries that move fast. While AERISIO is a Nordic company, Spain is our home market, and there is no one better positioned to join and lead AERISIO’s growth here than Urko. We are thrilled that he is now an integral member of our team." — Martti Mela, CEO & Co-Founder, AERISIO
