Our language, Iñupiatun, holds immense value in our corporation and we strive to weave it into the work we do. We extend our gratitude to the many Iñupiatun teachers, interpreters, and translators who have played a key role in bringing our language into our spaces. Their knowledge and dedication are instrumental to ensuring that Iñupiatun remains a vibrant and living part of our daily lives, enriching the efforts of NANA and our subsidiaries. Your work helps us connect more deeply with our shareholders and communities, strengthening the bond between who we are and the work we do every day.
Whether it`s through the names of our companies or properties, the content we share on social media, or communications with our shareholders and employees, we aim to ensure that Iñupiatun has a visible and meaningful presence. This effort reflects our commitment to honoring and perpetuating our language as a vital part of our identity and connection to our culture.
