By Dana Robertson Creative Director and Founder of Neon. The Futures Company Signature image by Neon. On January 31 2008, Yankelovich was acquired by WPP and merged with Henley Centre HeadlightVision (an existing WPP group company). Yankelovich was the US’s leading consumer trends and lifestyle research business and Henley Centre Headlight Vision was Europe’s leading consumer trends business, providing global trends intelligence, research and consultancy services. Neon were approached to provide a new brand idea, name and identity for the merged company, along with a brand architecture that could successfully integrate existing sub brands.

Stacking the rather long name of the new business made it neater and easier to use. And our lower case logotype conveys a light, contemporary feel - as do the fresh, and distinctively non-macho colours.
