365 Connect Marks 10-Year Milestone Celebration with Launch of Branding Enhancement Program
NEW ORLEANS, LA – March 6, 2013 – (RealEstateRama) — 365 Connect, the New Orleans-based, award-winning online technology platform provider for the multifamily housing industry, announced it is marking the company’s 10-year anniversary with its recently unveiled new logo. The new logo design features elements of the company’s leading-edge technology platform.
As the 10-year anniversary ushers in a new chapter at 365 Connect, the new logo symbolizes its technology initiatives and captures the passion, energy and direction of the company, as it moves into the next decade of service. The icon portion of the new logo is a series of interconnected platforms, which represents the company’s technology strategy. These platforms are formed from the digits “365,” which are laid on top of each other and dissected into platforms.
365 Connect CEO Kerry W. Kirby stated, “Technology has come a long way in the last 10 years and so has the multifamily housing industry. Serving multifamily communities, prospects and residents nationwide, we have learned a lot over the last decade. As we move forward into a new era, we want to adjust our brand to be symbolic of the platform driven technology we deliver to the industry we serve. We felt our 10-year milestone was a perfect time to enhance our brand, as we continue to forge the future of technology in the multifamily housing industry.”
