We encourage you to use your talents and create a logo for our Congress event, which will be held on August 2-5, 2012 in the New York area.
The logo should be a unique design and should incorporate representation of the theme of our Congress event. Your submission needs to be provided in a JPEG file with a brief description about the representation of the logo.
-Keep it simple. Your logo should be scalable to any size without losing any image quality or visual impact.
-Typography is crucial. Your font’s legibility must be of primary concern. Typefaces are selected for their distinctive character, variety of weights, widths and proportions.
-Your logo should not be more than 2-3 colors.
-Make sure your logo design works well in black and white as well as color.
-A witty slogan or tag line can complement your logo well, imparting a sense of personality.

The winner will be selected by the Public Relations Committee in consultation with the ZAGNY Board. The winner will receive recognition in the event program. All submitted entries will be retained by the ZAGNY Board. The submissions should be made by 30th June 2010 to
