Marketing[edit]
The official logo and slogan was unveiled on 30 August 2022. It features the colours blue, red and yellow, representing the flag colours of hosts Sweden, Norway and Denmark, with the circles symbolising a ball flying through the air at a rapid speed. The slogan: "Aim to Excite" was also unveiled the same day. The logo was designed by Danish brand agency Urgent.Agency.[8]
The official anthem of the competition is "Aiming For Number One", made and performed by Swedish DJ and producer Wahlstedt.[9] It is not the first anthem Wahlstedt has made for a handball competition ("All for us" for the 2020 European Men's Handball Championship).[10]
