Brand Videos FAQs

The only difference between the unabridged and abridged version is each video's length. The unabridged video length is approximately 6 minutes 40 seconds and the abridged video length is approximately 3 minutes.

The four themes highlighted in the video remain the same and define IEEE and its influence in the world and on technology:

  1. IEEE is one voice for engineering, computing, technological innovation.
  2. IEEE is engineering a better tomorrow.
  3. IEEE is inspiring innovation for a global community.
  4. IEEE is advancing creativity and technological excellence.

Brand Identity Guidelines FAQs

The Visual Identity Guidelines explain how to use visual elements to create and strengthen the perception of the IEEE brand. The guidelines define the look-and-feel of the IEEE, and explain in more detail the proper use of the IEEE Master Brand in a variety of print and Web-based applications. The visual elements include color palettes, typography, imagery, and the design system (the wedge). The visual elements were streamlined into best practices to convey the organization’s culture, personality, and core brand values.
Anyone who represents IEEE is encouraged to use these guidelines when creating IEEE communications to achieve a high level of visual consistency and to ensure the integrity of the IEEE brand on all branded materials. They outline both existing IEEE best practices and opportunities for increased alignment and brand leverage.

IEEE Master Brand FAQs

Careful and comprehensive use of the IEEE Master Brand will:
  • give IEEE a consistent global identity worldwide;
  • ensure that IEEE organizations, products, services and print and electronic materials will be immediately identified with IEEE;
  • enhance the IEEE name and reputation of technical excellence and help introduce IEEE to potential members and customers;
  • enhance the credibility of publications, events and activities;
  • protect the IEEE name and brand from trademark and infringement.

No, this use is acceptable only on membership pins.
Color plays an important role in representing the IEEE Brand. Using IEEE Blue (PMS 3015), or process color equivalent on all corporate-wide communications is strongly encouraged. The black or white options are also acceptable. For all sub-brand applications, the black or white options are preferred.
The original “Reflex blue” is among the most common (and consequently indistinctive) of corporate blues. The goal was to develop something more muted but still identifiable. The new IEEE blue, along with the bright colors of the new color palette, give the sense of forward-movement, energy and innovation. This palette also allows for flexibility in brand communications where sub-brand, cultural, or product distinction is warranted.
Use the IEEE Master Brand on materials that contain other IEEE or organization’s logos. Use the IEEE Master Brand + Tagline graphic on all corporate materials, or when no other logo or logo with a tagline exists.
