Challenge

In 2022, Atlas SkillTech University faced a pivotal challenge – creating a unique brand identity while leveraging the success of ISDI (Indian School of Design & Innovation) in partnership with Parsons New School.

Targeting an ambitious generation, the brand narrative emphasizes a cutting-edge educational ecosystem that empowers students as co-creators of their futures. Integrating the strengths of ISDI and ISME, the brand highlights a tech-integrated curriculum, innovation, industry readiness, and a global perspective.
