They will compete on this prestigious prize which is awarded for the 28th time.

“This year's nominees for the Signum Award show that the work of building and nurturing strong brands continues to be both a priority and a clear success factor. We can also note with joy and great humility that the trademark Signum Award also continues to attract very well-known actors in widely different industries. Among this year's nominations, most are probably already well known to most of Sweden's population. For the jury, it may be an even more difficult task than ever to award a winner in this impressively strong starting field”, says Gunnar Berenmark, secretary of the jury.

Since the founding of the award 1995, the branding work of hundreds of Nordic companies has been scrutinized by an independent jury consisting of very knowledgeable and experienced marketers, lawyers and academics. The nominees are judged on the basis of a number of criteria on how the company conveys the trademark, its long-term development and how to legally protect it from infringement.

2023 year’s winner will be presented at The Trademark Day™ on 9 March in Stockholm.
