Gone are the days where athleticism and skill are the only factors that dictate an athlete’s (or a team’s) success. In today’s hyper-competitive and lucrative sports market, athletes have shifted the trajectory of their lives, their careers and their teams' status by turning themselves into value-generating brands.

If you don’t already know (and love) Orgain, invest a few minutes and watch the video below. This is a great example of Nestlé taking a ‘best of both worlds’ approach to open up new opportunities and grow brands globally. Andrew Abraham and I joined the team at Orgain’s HQ in Irvine, California to talk about what we’ve learned in our work together and what’s ahead: 1️⃣ We’re in an incredible moment to apply core brand and product strengths to rising #trends:  Interest in high-protein products has never been higher. That continues to be a major opportunity for a credible brand like Orgain that has shown the ability to deliver great-tasting options that are higher protein and low- or no-sugar. 2️⃣ Our collaboration can preserve what works AND layer on additional strengths: The strength of Orgain is its innovation muscle and speed-to-market. It’s critical to maintain that while we layer on Nestlé's strengths: deep scientific expertise, global reach, and more. 3️⃣ While Orgain has significant growth opportunities in the US, it’s also poised to take off globally.  It’s a brand that travels well. We have the chance to reach markets with strong digital affinity (for both brand building and distribution), as well as tapping Nestlé’s physical infrastructure around the world.   Thanks to the team for welcoming us, for the great questions and ideas throughout the visit, and the continued hard work to catapult Orgain to new levels.   Watch the excerpt from our employee townhall here: #startups #health #nutrition #CEOconversations

Last week, we had the honor of co-hosting the Growth of the Sports Ecosystem event at Spring Place Beverly Hills, where Nate Raabe joined forces with Alexander Stegmann Bhathal of Revitate, AG Spanos of the Los Angeles Chargers and Josh Childress of LandSpire Group to discuss the evolution of sports through the lens of ownership, investment and philanthropy. From the application of technological advancements to the rising popularity of developing leagues, or the ability to bring together athletes, businesses and communities through sports to raise awareness for philanthropic causes, no topic as it relates to this growing ecosystem was off limits. Thank you to everyone that attended and to our amazing cohosts and event partners, Revitate, Chargers LUX, LandSpire Group and Spring Place!

Have you heard our origin story? From Theragunz to #Therabody, two incredible thought leaders, Dr. Jason Wersland and @GuyRaz, join forces to unravel it then weave it all together on the #HowIBuiltThis podcast, out today on #Wondery and #AmazonPrime and next week on all podcast apps. Their conversation covers everything from the #Theragun invention story to Dr. J’s advice on how to deal with naysayers and bring your own and ideas to life, and then to market. Being born out of necessity - Dr. Jason’s own pain from a freeway accident - is what keep us innovating every day as we work to help ease real human pain points. It’s also why we never take for granted our industry position as the #wellness #technology #leader. https://bit.ly/3yaOprB
