The old logo had the following problems :

  • no longer reflects the client’s modern, cutting-edge identity in AI, data intelligence, and next-gen IT.
  • Lack of Scalability – The logo didn’t adapt well across different formats
  • Not Vector-Based – Without a vectorial format, resizing caused pixelation, making it unsuitable for high-quality applications.

Concept: logos proposals

Concept 1 : Acceleration
  • The logo is created using the letters A and T
  • It forms an upward arrow, symbolizing clear direction and continuous growth. Its triangular shape resembles a mountain, a universal symbol of ambition, challenges, and success.
  • The clean, dynamic design ensures a bold and forward-thinking brand identity.

Concept 2 : Connection

The logo, shaped like an “A”, symbolizes the interconnection of technological networks and data flows. This design represents a vast, interconnected network, where each point signifies a connection, data exchange, and continuous progression.

Concept 3 : Fusion

The “T” in Accel Tech is embedded within the “A” of the logo, appearing as pixels or small cubes that form the structure. This design illustrates movement, acceleration, and a company in constant evolution. It symbolizes connectivity, technological advancements, data, and an interconnected network.
