Logo for new tech company's products and web-site

Neptune Mobile Devices

Our new company is developing portable computing products for the aerospace and defense industries. It was spun-off from Neptune Systems (http://www.neptune-sys.com) but we would like to get a new modern logo for this new company and its products.

Your design will be on the products that are used by people throughout the world, and on the various marketing materials we will create (including web-site, marketing collateral, business cards, etc.).

In terms of the logo itself, try various approaches to laying out the company name: Neptune Mobile Devices (for example, on 1 line, 2 lines, 3 lines.)

You might also try variations on NeMo / nemo for the graphic, but we need the full name in the logo.

Keep it clean and simple. that's how we'd like to portray the brand: simple, usable, rugged.

Brand proposition: portable intelligence

We will be selling to aerospace companies, product development houses, and defense organizations throughout the world. While these will be "Made in the USA" products, they will be used by people throughout the world.

1. We want to give the product logo and web-site a more modern look than the parent company's current logo (see http://neptune-sys.com)

2. We have not yet decided whether the logo should be single-color, or multi-color, or whether gradients are acceptable. Try variations, and suggest colors that can work on the product seen here:

Where it says "SWITCHBACK" will be YOUR DESIGN. Make us proud!

Also, the product may be a different color, and we'll use your design on our web-site, marketing collateral, and business cards.

3. The key is to make the logo fairly basic, interesting, easy to understand with clean, simple colors.

4. The winning logo design MUST be delivered in an Adobe Illustrator file that is compatible with version 11.0 of Illustrator. This will enable us to scale the image as appropriate.
