In between his nonstop meetings and travels, Michael Iati, director of architecture and planning for the Johns Hopkins Health System, found time to sit down with Dome for an update.
Hopkins’ “Branding & Use of Name Toolkit” Web site recently won an international group’s award for excellence. Honored with an iNOVA award from a panel of Web site development judges assembled by MerComm Inc., a Network-based firm that fosters international communications projects and programs, the Hopkins Web site (brand.hopkinsmedicine.org/gui/content.asp) provides clear instructions and rules on how to use the Hopkins Medicine name, our brandmarks and logos, as well as guidelines on Web site development. “Every use of our name and brandmarks conveys an association with Johns Hopkins Medicine and potentially affects the institution’s reputation,” says Dean and CEO Edward Miller. “Some uses are appropriate and desirable; others are potentially damaging and must be avoided.”
