Stanford Logos and Brands
Stanford University, located in the heart of Silicon Valley on 8,180 acres in Palo Alto, California, defines the “Stanford” section. The Stanford Cardinal sports teams compete in the Pac-12 Conference (moving to the ACC in 2024) and wear an emblem with the letter “S” and a redwood tree, while Stanford Stadium hosts college football games. University alumni founded Google, Hewlett-Packard, Nike, Netflix, Cisco, and dozens of other technology companies. Stanford’s endowment exceeds $36 billion, making it one of the richest universities in the world. This section collects visual symbols of the university, which, because of its proximity to Sand Hill Road and Menlo Park, has become an incubator for the global technology industry.
