‘research and innovation makes a difference’
Event collateral – Science New Zealand Awards
About
The Science New Zealand Awards celebrate the people whose research and innovation makes a difference for New Zealand – and, often, the world. The finalists and winners represent the best of New Zealand’s scientific talent, growing our economy, looking after our environment and creating a fairer New Zealand.
Researchers often collaborate across institutes and with industry to tackle important challenges and grow opportunities for New Zealand, pooling their knowledge, expertise, experience and insights. The awards recognise research teams that include partners from communities, business, iwi, and local and central government.
Approach
The theme we developed was ‘impacts for Aotearoa New Zealand’, recognising the research driving innovation and tangible outcomes that benefit New Zealanders.
A vibrant colour palette set the scene for the celebratory tone. It was translated across invitations, programme booklets, social assets, certificates and the evening’s presentation slide show.
Outcomes
The new look and feel gave the event its own ‘brand’, making the awards feel more prestigious.
Having a vibrant, positive design that is consistent across all the event collateral helped to elevate an event recognising special people and projects that deserve to be celebrated.
