Trygg-Hansa
Trygg-Hansa has good knowledge of what their customers are experiencing today and what creates anxiety and uncertainty for the future. They use that knowledge to prevent damage at all stages of life. For several years, they have been actively working to prevent and reduce mental illness among young people. As a engaged partner to Avicii Arena, Trygg-Hansa takes the initiative and supports a number of activities in order to break the stigma around mental illness.
At the end of 2021, “För alla unga” was launched, a free, digital education for high school students. The education provides knowledge and tools to feel as good as possible during teen age years. Thousands of students have already taken part in the training, which has been developed in collaboration with young people, teachers, experts and researchers. The education is adapted to the school’s curriculum and our goal is to include mental health as a compulsory part of the schedule in the Swedish school.

To SwedbankFriends
Friends is a non-profit organization, dedicated to the prevention of bullying. Its vision is to see young children and adolescents grow up in a safe and secure society where all are treated equally. Friends educate and support schools, pre-schools and sports clubs throughout Sweden.
The idea of giving the naming rights to Friends was that the National Arena would become a physical manifestation against bullying, and be a symbol of the obvious: no child should be subjected to bullying and discrimination.
To FriendsTele2
Tele2 is the obvious main partner of the arena. Since its inauguration in 2013, they have continued to raise the bar of the arena experience by connecting live events to modern, mobile services.
