CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Huron Consulting Group (NASDAQ: HURN) today introduced a new brand strategy to emphasize the company’s distinct approach to helping clients solve their most pressing problems and to better reflect Huron’s evolution since its founding 14 years ago.
Huron Consulting Group will emphasize its name as simply Huron in the marketplace, unifying the company’s businesses with a common identity and highlighting the firm’s transformation beyond its pure consulting heritage. To support the introduction of the brand identity, Huron has unveiled a new logo and visual style and a redesigned website.
“Huron’s new brand strategy captures our commitment to achieve meaningful change in partnership with clients,” said James H. Roth, chief executive officer and president of Huron. “To help clients successfully address the economic and competitive pressures they face today, we work passionately and in close partnership with them, treating their challenges as if they are our own. Our new brand identity better represents our culture and our vision for the future.”
The new logo includes a brand mark that is called the “Huron link.” It represents Huron’s culture of partnership and collaboration, and connotes the entrepreneurial spirit that exists across Huron’s business.
“The new brand identity captures who we are and how we serve clients today and provides a platform for our continued evolution,” Roth said. “The brand strategy supports Huron’s future growth plans – including developing and acquiring new offerings to align with clients’ changing needs and continuing to deepen Huron’s industry expertise and client relationships.”
The refreshed Huron website reflects the firm’s more dynamic and unified brand and will help the market and clients connect with the firm’s products, services and industry perspective. Huron’s updated website provides a cleaner, more modern design and improved navigation to enhance the overall experience for clients, business partners, job seekers and others.
Huron will continue to transform its website by adding end-to-end content that will continuously adapt to user needs and market trends. New features will include improved functionality for accessing Huron thought leadership, additional solution portals and more intelligent search capabilities.
