  3. Why? • TERENA’s branding had been managed rather loosely • Not much more than a logo and company name • Logo was never professionally designed • No guidelines for when and how to use • Feedback received highlighted: GA 26 Malta, 20 October 2006

  4. Elements of the current logo GA 26 Malta, 20 October 2006

  5. Font was fashionable once…but not any more Name hard to read Colour fade impractical Unclear for many that map represents ‘Europe’ GA 26 Malta, 20 October 2006

  6. Criteria for a logo • Represents core elements of TERENA • Unique, not subject to confusion • Functional, can be used in many different contexts • Fits in with overall PR Strategy GA 26 Malta, 20 October 2006

  7. Why add a slogan? • Helps to express TERENA’s basic function in the research networking community • Complements our mission and objectives • Makes it easier to comprehend what TERENA stands for GA 26 Malta, 20 October 2006
