    A month ago, we experienced the most intense 5 days of the year at the Hoka UTMB Mont-Blanc—the event that everyone looks forward to. This year, Näak was proud to expand its role from Technical Partner in 2023 to becoming the Official Nutrition & Hydration Partner. This reflects our commitment to providing efficient and sustainable nutrition to the global trail running community, reinforcing Näak as a leader in endurance sports nutrition. Over these five days, our teams from Annecy and Montreal connected with industry professionals, brands, and athletes. At the Näak booth, runners explored our full range of nutrition products, discovered their favorites, and learned about the latest innovations. More than 1,100 runners fine-tuned their race day strategies using the Nutrition Calculator, making Näak a true partner in their success. Näak products were available at all aid stations across the eight UTMB races, fueling thousands of runners. To support our sustainability mission, Näak products were offered in bulk format to reduce waste. Thank you to the UTMB® Group for organizing this incredible event, and to the volunteers who made it possible. Together, we're shaping the future of trail running performance and sustainability. Looking ahead, Näak will continue to fuel runners in the upcoming UTMB World Series races, including Whistler, Nice, Kodiak, Trans Jeju, Mallorca, and many more! #naak #fuelyourultra #preserveyourplayground #UTMBMontBlanc #UTMB2024 #nutritionpartner #nutritioncalculator #trailrunning #ultratrail

    Introducing Näak’s New Drink Mix Flavors: Peach-Apricot & Neutral! Hydration challenges? We've got you covered. Athletes often struggle with finding the right hydration mix: too sweet, causing gut issues, or simply boring. We listened to your feedback and created two new drink mix flavors. Näak Drink Mix Peach-Apricot offers a delicious and refreshing taste, perfect for those long miles. Näak Drink Mix Neutral, with its alkaline pH, is a game-changer for sensitive stomachs, preventing discomfort and flavor & sugar fatigue. Both flavors are packed with essential nutrients to fuel your performance, offer a smooth texture, and are free of allergens. Whether you're tackling long miles or need a gentle hydration option, Näak has you covered.

    Established in 2009, the Mosaic HEC Summer School on Management of Creativity in an Innovation Society has sparked the inception of similar programs across Europe, South America, and Asia. It stands as a global benchmark in creativity and innovation management. Recognized internationally for its leadership in creativity and innovation management, the Montreal-Barcelona Summer School provides a distinctive and enriching learning opportunity. During its 16th edition, Näak had the honor of joining the program, delivering a conference titled "Disrupting the Food Supply Chain for Sustainability.” 🌱 We are especially proud that this project was spearheaded by our VP of Design and Branding Florin Gabor, who graduated from the school thirteen years ago. His journey from student to industry leader is truly inspiring. 🚀 #näak #fuelyourultra

    We're thrilled to reflect on a amazing weekend at Speedgoat Mountain Runs alongside UTMB® and HOKA! Salt Lake City, you brought the energy - group runs, summit cheers, and those delicious Näak popsicles (seriously, they were a hit!). 🏃♂️😋 The expo booth was a blast too! We connected with the running community, showcasing our Ultra Energy Line (including a sneak peek of our new flavors!), and fueling your race-day questions. Huge congrats to all participants who crushed the trails! Special shout-out to Näak Pro Athlete Jazmine Lowther for claiming victory in the Speedgoat 50k! This incredible comeback from injury shows that she is in top form ahead of the UTMB. And cheers to Adam Peterman for securing a well-deserved 7th place finish. 🚀 Fueled by these inspiring connections and achievements, we're already looking forward to the next race! 🤩 📸 : cezaryna #naak #fuelyourultra #speedgoatmountainruns #utmbworldseries #trailrunning #ultratrail
