IM8 NAMED OFFICIAL NUTRITION PARTNER
OF THE NBA IN AUSTRALIA AND SOUTHEAST ASIA
– IM8 will Host Fan Activation at an NBA House in the Region in 2027 –
HONG KONG, Oct. 12, 2026 – The National Basketball Association (NBA) and IM8 (US) LLC, a premium health and longevity brand, today announced a multiyear collaboration that makes IM8 the Official Nutrition Partner of the NBA in Australia and eight markets across Southeast Asia (Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam).

The announcement was made at an exclusive IM8 event at Upper House in Hong Kong by IM8 co-founders David Beckham and Danny Yeung and NBA executives, who were joined by two-time NBA champion and Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame member Chris Bosh.
As the Official Nutrition Partner of the NBA in the region, IM8 will conduct a series of NBA-themed marketing campaigns and fan engagement initiatives across the nine markets. In 2027, IM8 will also host an activation at NBA House, one of the league’s signature events, where fans can experience IM8 firsthand.
IM8, owned by Prenetics Global Limited (NASDAQ: PRE) and co-founded by Beckham, was built on a foundation of elite sport. Its roster of world-class athlete ambassadors includes two-time Kia NBA Most Valuable Player and 2021 NBA Champion Giannis Antetokounmpo.
“A few years ago, IM8 was an idea David Beckham and I sketched out together, with one ambition: to build a global health brand backed by the credibility of the world’s greatest athletes,” said Yeung, CEO of Prenetics and Co-Founder of IM8. “Today, we’re standing alongside the NBA, the most iconic league on the planet and the most powerful sports brand in the region. Together, we’re bringing IM8 to approximately 660 million people across Australia and Southeast Asia, pairing large, basketball-loving communities with a growing demand for premium health and wellness, as IM8 continues to expand globally.”
“Basketball has given me everything, and I’ve seen first-hand how this game brings people together in every corner of the world,” said Antetokounmpo. “I grew up in Athens dreaming about the NBA, so bringing IM8 to basketball fans across Australia and Southeast Asia means a lot to me. Taking care of your body allows you to show up and be your best every single day.”
“Our collaboration with IM8 reflects the NBA’s commitment to promoting the importance of a healthy lifestyle in the communities where we operate,” said NBA Head of Southeast Asia and Asia Marketing Sheila Rasu. “We look forward to working with IM8 to curate new experiences for NBA fans and IM8 consumers in Australia and across Southeast Asia.”
Fans in Australia and Southeast Asia can follow the collaboration and upcoming NBA House details at www.IM8health.com and across the league’s localized social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and X.
