Hoopfest marked the official launch of FinaoNation and FINAO® FlipWear®, an expanding line of casual wear designed with a link to social media.  The overarching theme of the new product is Failure Is Not An Option – FINAO®.  At the event FINAO® sponsored multiple teams and courts, and provided customized uniforms for the teams.  The Gonzaga University Dance Team was present to carry the FINAO® torch as FlipWear® ambassadors through performances and interaction throughout the weekend.

Thousands came to the FINAO® booth to receive customized silicone bracelets, stickers, flyers and brochures, not only was the initial interest clearly visible, but the web traffic at FinaoNation.com skyrocketed showing absorption of concept.

The goal of FINAO® is fairly simple; it is about celebrating what matters, what’s important and what defines the wearer. FINAO® is the convergence of personal goals and aspirations in a highly leveraged social media world - Achieved through its interactive apparel called FlipWear®.

FINAO® believes that ordinary people do extraordinary things daily across the nation. These are the early seeds of acknowledgement that we are all part of a community that is able to motivate, inspire and persevere.

This is the reason that FINAO® created FinaoNation.com.
