DESIGN ELEMENTS, HISTORY AND EVOLUTION OF ACCENTURE LOGO
Shape of the Accenture Logo
A total of three months extensive research and rigorous hard work went into the naming of the company that involved over fifty proposed names. Kim Petersen of Andersen Consulting was the man who finally came up with the word “Accenture”, by which he meant putting an accent or special importance to the future.
The current version of the Accenture logo was introduced in November 2000. It contained the company name in lower-case letters and a “greater-than” sign which is located just above the letter “t”. It helps “accent” the word as a symbolic expression that aims forward to the future. The lower case “a”, on the other hand, depicts that Accenture is easily reachable, consumer-friendly and caring.
