NANA
Development Corporation is one of the parent companies of NANA/Colt.
NANA was created in 1971 by a Congressional Act to solve the land claim
struggles between the Alaska Natives, State of Alaska and Federal government.
The act Congress created was the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act,
or ANCSA. NANA received 2.4 million acres of land and $44 million cash
compensation for land not received. There were originally 4,500 Inupiat
Eskimo shareholders but NANA, as well as three of the 13 Native Regional
Corporations, worked with Congress to allow enrollment of children born
after 1971. Through this effort, NANA now has over 11,000 shareholders.
Today, NANA owns and operates companies in many industries: oilfield
services, professional & management services, hospitality &
