Mips Becomes Official Safety Partner of Gothenburg Horse Show

GOTHENBURG (20211124) – Gothenburg Horse Show is pleased to announce that Mips, a world leader within helmet based safety, will be the Official Safety Partner of Gothenburg Horse Show. The 45th edition of the industry-leading show will take place at the iconic Scandinavium arena on February 23-27, 2022. Equestrian sports are a foundational element of Mips with the brand introducing its first safety system at the Gothenburg Horse Show in 2007.
“With its history in equestrian and focus on safety, it is very gratifying and feels like a natural connection to have Mips as our Official Safety Partner,” said Tomas Torgersen, Show Director of Gothenburg Horse Show since 1997.
The Mips safety system is based on over 20 years of research and development together with the Royal Institute of Technology and Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm. To date, Mips has delivered over 20 million safety systems to more than 130 helmet manufacturers in helmet categories such as bicycle, snow, equestrian, motorcycle and construction helmets.
“We are thrilled to announce our partnership with the Gothenburg Horse Show, an event that has a special place in Mips history,” said Max Strandwitz, CEO at Mips. “We know there are several equestrian head-related accidents daily, and that’s only in Sweden. The international equestrian community will have its eyes on Gothenburg Horse Show so it represents the ideal platform to communicate the Mips mission - raise head protection awareness and lead the world towards safer helmets.”
“Mips and the Gothenburg Horse Show share many common values,” stated Johan Nyth, Sales Director at Gothenburg Horse Show. “We are two organizations that stand for innovation and quality in everything we do. We look forward to working with Mips to raise safety awareness even more in the riding community.”
