Company History
For 10,000 years, the people of the NANA region successfully fought for survival in one of the harshest environments on earth. When faced with the challenges that modernization, globalization, and changes in climate brought, they continued that success, forming enterprises - like Akima - that would help them thrive in the modern world.
The work they do through Akima allows them to prosper in both traditional Iñupiat subsistence living and in modern life, and to “walk in two worlds with one spirit.” The hard work and resilience that allowed NANA’s shareholders to flourish in the Arctic has also led to success in their modern enterprises.
