Visual Identity Mascot The official mascot of the 2007 Summer Universiade is a rabbit named Mighty Mai-Tri. The name of this mascot suggests themes of power and friendship but also corresponds to the Year of the Rabbit, which is the lunar year of King Bhumibol's birth. The rabbit welcomes athletes of all nations. His appearance expresses humility through a smile, color, and mannerism.

Slogan The slogan for the 24th Summer Universiade is, "All Become One", suggesting the unity of people of all races and religions from 150 countries.

Logo The logo itself consists of five line colors arranged in a U shape, which is derived from the word Universiade and is comparable to the lines of experience transmission. The exchange of knowledge and culture between representatives and athletes from universities from five continents around the world all in one. Connected into a golden yellow bird patterned symbol, which is the identity of the Thai nation.
