A brand and logo have been developed for the Daugavpils Innovation Centre. At the basis of the logo there is a sphere. The main value of the brand is inclusion – in nature, science, society, relationships and even at the level of personality dimensions.

By understanding and comprehending the processes, one can build an inclusive society, which, in turn, can include more sustainability in its future path.
