The current version of the Xerox logo was introduced in 2008 keeping in line with the new trends in the age of internet and multimedia. The four-decade-old iconic logotype was discarded, as the new emblem marks the transformation of the company from a photography and document solution provider to a highly advanced information technology corporation.
