IT’S TIME TO DESIGN!
A New Logo for
AusCham, the Australian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam
This competition is open to all. You don’t need to be a professional designer. No matter what your profession, or your position, if you have creative talent, you could be our winner!
What is AusCham?
AusCham is a membership-based, independent NGO (Non Governmental Organisation) which represents and promotes the business interests of our members who have a connection with Australia (eg ownership, staff, alumni (staff who have studied in Australia), customers, suppliers etc). AusCham supports the development of the bilateral trade relationship between Vietnam and Australia. AusCham is a national organization with elected directors based in both Hanoi and HCMC supported by five permanent staff.
AusCham’s links extend throughout each of Vietnam’s provinces, as well as back into Australia.
The new logo
AusCham’s Board believes the time is ripe to update the organisation’s logo to make it more professional, modern and dynamic. The logo should demonstrate a connection between Australia and Vietnam – via the business interests of our members.
Where will the new logo be used?
The winning logo will be used for all AusCham’s marketing materials and documents including our website, business cards, promotional goods, event banners and more. This competition represents an opportunity for an emerging creative to really make a mark!
