ACEHK 50th Anniversary Logo Design Competition

Purpose

In celebration of ACEHK's upcoming 50th anniversary in Session 2026/27, we are thrilled to announce our Logo Design Competition. We warmly invite consulting engineers from all backgrounds and disciplines to participate by crafting a unique logo to commemorate this significant milestone, symbolizing the success and contributions of the consulting engineering sector over the past half-century!

The winning design may be adopted as the official anniversary logo and featured across all ACEHK 50th anniversary promotional materials.

Submissions are open starting today and will be accepted until 11:59pm on 31 August 2026. If you have any questions about the competition, please send email to info@acehk.org.hk.

Eligibility

All categories of engineers working in the consulting industry in Hong Kong are welcome to join the competition.

We invite you to create a design that complements the ACEHK logo to form a cohesive lockup, in which the number “50” must be visible. It is essential that participants refrain from altering the existing ACEHK logo.

Your design should convey a sense of professionalism and be versatile enough to be effectively showcased across a range of mediums, such as print materials, digital platforms, displays, and merchandise.
