With the new Agency coming soon, the European Union Agency for the Space Programme will have a new logo thanks to the creativity of thousands of graphic designers. Find out how it looks like. 

In 2020, the European GNSS Agency (GSA), launched the EUSPA Logo Design Contest for the conception and development of the new European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) logo. The contest stimulated fresh thinking and innovation in order to develop a visually striking, aesthetically appealing logo that will capture the new agency’s quintessence.  

Today, with the EU Space Programme Regulation voted by the EU legislators, we are ready to disclose the EUSPA logo which will become the visual point of reference for the EU Space user community.

 

 

Everything has its place: the story behind the logo

The elements that make up the new EUSPA logo consist of symbols of the new agency’s enlarged scope but also a reminiscent of its legacy. 

Inspired by the shape of the Earth, the logo represents both, the agency’s connection with space and its mission to provide satellite-based services. More specifically, the blue and yellow circular shapes symbolize EUSPA’s values of integrity and professionalism, but also the unity of the European Union, and the cooperation with multiple actors for the delivery of EU Space synergies. 

The opening on the right side of the circle is ‘/embracing the EUSPA acronym to showcase how the agency will be interfacing with user communities and European partners alike. 

“Thousands of graphic designers answered to the competition and the choice has been really difficult to make. But we are extremely happy with the result and we are confident that EUSPA will be clearly noticeable thanks to this new logo.” noted one member of the jury.
