New look for electronica 2008

News Release from: electronica
12 September 2007

Messe München's electronica is continuing its modernization of images and text, a process which began at electronica 2006. First came the new subtitle components. systems. applications as well as the red e at the beginning of electronica. Now part 2 of its modern make-over is revealed with the new logo for electronica 2008. Both text and logo are displayed with three-dimensional effect in vivid red and green.

The traditional and familiar sine-wave has been transformed ingeniously into an oscillation symbol. The world’s leading trade fair for components, systems and applications of electronics thus is newly branded with a logo which reflects its expertise, its concentration on the essential, and its constant regard for the future. All this despite the logo’s original and most striking design features being retained, so that it remains immediately recognisable.

The Munich agency whp, who developed the new text and logo, has handled publicity for electronica since 2005.
