Frontify's brand visionaries
Last year, we launched Paradigms, Frontify’s brand experience summit, to help forge a stronger connection between some of the movers and shakers in modern branding, allowing visionary thinkers to clink glasses, exchange ideas, and find new ways to look at old challenges. This year, we want to continue to shine the spotlight on people we think change branding and design — and celebrate their work beyond Paradigms. Frontify’s Brand Visionaries 2023 include 90 people from the US, Europe, and the DACH region (German, Austria, and Switzerland, where Frontify was born 10 years ago). These visionaries inspire, challenge, and help bring about the future of branding. And you may meet some of them at this year’s Paradigms in Lisbon.

FIAT 500: Has the product become its own brand?
Not a day goes by without the launch of a new car model. Recently, a specific detail of an updated vehicle has drawn my attention: its front emblem. Whereas virtually every vehicle’s nose features the brand logo, complemented by the model name at the back, this car proudly shows the latter on its grille: 500. These three digits are a statement — and a look at the tailgate reveals it’s one by FIAT. Now, contrary to the car’s predecessors, why does this primary badge show the type, not the brand?
