Entrepreneurship Society Xes Helsinki has never had clear brand, before I joined it as one of Board members. Logo was the only visual element which was identifying its brand.

The challenge

Branding from scratch. Creation of bold visual identity in order to establish recognisable Xes’ image in entrepreneurship ecosystem in Finland.

Instagram version of banners

There was a strong need for event banners to be made in two versions. One - for Eventbrite, another - for Instagram posts. Below is illustration of these two variations, as well as highlight of what part of Instagram banner will be visible on the account home page.

YouTube thumbnails

Main topic of the webinars was captured on the thumbnails of the recorded events. Photos were taken from the Unsplash and used to inspire and carry on the overall feeling of the events.
