Our brand
Over 20 years after our founding, we are excited to unveil our refreshed brand, marking a new chapter in our journey. We have updated our logo, tagline, and color palette to reflect our forward-looking identity while honoring our roots.
Our new logo is inspired by the iconic Berlin TV tower, visible from our campus in the heart of Berlin. This tower, a beacon of East-West collaboration and German reunification, mirrors our commitment to global cooperation, innovative thinking, unity, and progress. The logo’s transmission line signifies a shift in perspective, blending elements of our past with a bold vision for the future.
Our tagline, “Business as unusual,” encapsulates the innovative spirit of ESMT Berlin. It reflects our commitment to transformative leadership and celebrates Berlin’s dynamic and ever-strengthened atmosphere.
With a thoughtfully chosen color palette representing our values and vision, we are poised to continue shaping the future of business education. Join us on this exciting journey as we empower people to create a better tomorrow.
