Logo Design Brief
Need a graphic to represent three strategic imperatives: Fortify the Core, Expand the Franchise, Explore the Edges. We would like to use as a means to communicate our vision to employees and investors. The end product will be used in a PowerPoint slide deck.
The idea is to capture how we will act along three fronts in order to grow our business. We will fortify our core businesses through R&D and smart investments. We will expand out business by growing in underserved markets or in adjacent markets. And we will explore the edges through mergers and acquisitions, alliances or internal developments in new fields.
