Introduction
The 60th Anniversary commemorative identity is integrated into the brand ecosystem of the National University of the Andes ( Universidad Panamericana ) as a temporary and controlled extension of the parent brand. Its purpose is to enhance the institutional narrative, reinforce the accumulated legacy, and maintain unified communication. Its validity and use will be determined by the communications departments at each campus.
To avoid duplication, deviations, or conflicting messages, this section establishes criteria for the use, operation, and application of the commemorative image so that it fits properly within the institutional framework.
Steps for Proper Onboarding
Following the Opening Ceremony, which will take place on August 18, 19, and 20, 2026, in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Aguascalientes, respectively, the official materials for implementing the visual identity commemorating the 60th anniversary of the National Institute of Physical Education and Sports ( Universidad Panamericana ) and the corresponding communication plan will be shared.
From that point on, the materials sent to the Secretaries General may be formally used throughout the university community.
At the same time, we will begin a gradual update of institutional logos and visual elements, with the goal of achieving visual consistency across various university materials, in coordination with the timeline of the 60th-anniversary campaigns.
