Design the UAE’s logo

At 39 years of age, the UAE has decided to adopt a brand. Next month you could leave your permanent mark on the nation by taking part in a design contest that will pick one logo to represent the emirates worldwide. UAE nationals and residents are invited to submit a design and, with the backing of the government and their marketing team, the winning logo could become one of the most recognised emblems in the world. Think Canada’s maple leaf, Ireland’s clover or even the ‘I♥NY’ emblem, all of which are instantly identifiable.

Read the entry criteria and submit your logo at www.uaepm.ae/nationbrand/en/NationBrandContest.aspx. The closing date is December 30.
