PARTNER STATEMENTS Having maintained a global, longstanding and valuable cooperation with the EHF, Gerflor can only envisage the continued support of this exhilarating sport. The EHF EURO events hosted across Europe remain a great opportunity to promote and activate the celebration of handball and with Taraflex floors as an integral part of these events; Gerflor continues to contribute to the universal presentation of handball as well as the EHF corporate identity. The European Handball Federation is a great benchmark for all handball organisations and as the sport continues to excel, Gerflor anticipates a lasting collaboration with an organisation that places creativity and innovation at the fore. Pierre Lienhard & Lionel Arlin (Director International Operations & Event Manager of Gerflor) The sport of handball has developed greatly since 1991 – not only internationally but especially in Europe under the guidance of the EHF. The increased profile of the sport and the European club competitions, especially the yearly highlight of the innovative EHF VELUX FINAL4 Champions League, has brought the sport into a very positive light. We have always been able to rely on the EHF to provide optimum working conditions for the media and AIPS is extremely honoured to have EHF as one of our official partners. The partnership is cemented in the yearly “Media Get-together” jointly organised by the EHF, AIPS Handball Commission and the city of Cologne. Congratulations on the silver anniversary of one of Europe’s most dynamic sports federations! Gianni Merlo (President International Sports Press Association) The future is very positive for European handball in general and women’s handball in particular. Handball is the best team sport for women, both for players and spectators, with its technique, speed and thrill. Handball has everything what modern people want. Arne Elovsson (EHF Vice-President) Women are becoming more active in sports today; and the share of women in sports is constantly growing. Handball shall use this trend to stimulate growth in the women sector. Jean Brihault put emphasis on women’s handball in the past – and this has to be continued in the future! It is easier to become the leading Olympic women’s team sport than it is to become n°2 (after football) in men’s team sports. This should be the target. The EHF and women’s clubs need to closely cooperate to achieve this! Zsolt Akos Jeney (President Women´s Forum Club Handball) 182
It has been a great honour for us to accompany and support the EHF for 25 years of development and growth. Jointly, we have delivered both spectacular sports moments and strong commercial success. And the future looks equally promising: European handball is on the right path to master digital opportunities, access new markets and engage more and more fans around the world. Handball, its teams and stories build an essential part of the European sports landscape, and Infront‎ will cease no effort to further strengthen the position and impact of the EHF flagship events going forward. Our Infront and broader Wanda Sports team truly lives and breathes handball – sharing the passion of our EHF colleagues for the sport. Philippe Blatter (President & CEO Infront Sports & Media AG) Aristotle said “the secret of being able to, lies in wanting to”…in all my positions as a player, and on the other side of the court, I have met so many people who are really willing to work for our beloved sport. The future of handball will be a bright one. Our social interaction is currently undergoing a radical change towards a digital transformation; thus sport in general and handball need to adapt to this new situation and its demands. But, the basis of successful handball will always stay the same: contribute to your team and experience the great power of moving together in the same direction. David Szlezak (Managing Director EHF Marketing GmbH) Founded in 1991 with more or less only one person in an office with a desk and a chair, the EHF made a tremendous development in the last 25 years. EHF and EHFM pushed the European Championships and the Champions League to an extraordinary level, and established a high professional administration in Vienna. I am convinced that the European handball family will master the challenges of the next 25 years and improve the status of handball in a changing society and media world. Frank Bohmann (President European Professional Handball Leagues Association) 183
