About nike
"If you have a body, you are an athlete."
Bill Bowerman said this a couple of decades ago. The guy was right. It defines how he viewed the world, and it defines how Nike pursues its destiny. Ours is a language of sports, a universally understood lexicon of passion and competition. A lot has happened at Nike in the 33 years since they entered the industry, most of it good, some of it downright embarrassing. But through it all, Nike remains totally focused on creating performance opportunities for everyone who would benefit, and offering empowering messages for everyone who would listen.
At Nike, they feel lucky to have a genuine, altruistic reason to be: the service of human potential. That's the great benefit of sports, and they're glad to be in the middle of it.
What started with a handshake between two running geeks in sleepy Eugene, Oregon, is now the world's most competitive sports and fitness company. The world headquarters is in Beaverton, Oregon. The Pacific Northwest is Nike's hometown, but like so many ambitious souls, Nike has expanded their horizons to every corner of the world. Nike employs approximately 24,300 people, and every one of them is significant to their mission of bringing inspiration and innovation to every athlete in the world.
