InField MedicalLogo Design Contest

I did not use the sliders to denote between "masculine & Feminine, etc, etc." as this won't be a retail brand of any kind. Given we are concentrating on healthcare...medical device and drug delivery (not the drug itself) technologies, it should have a "medical" feel to it. There are many venture capital firms, angel funds and other medical accelerators out there BUT they concentrate on the higher end of the technology spectrum in very large markets, yet that involve huge costs in development and uncertain FDA approval paths. There are plenty of "incremental" innovations that never see the light of day because no one focuses on this area. These other firms are always "swinging for the fences" to get the homerun and many time strike out (run out of cash, FDA fails to approve, etc.)...we however would rather see the singles and doubles with the occasional triple that have defined regulatory paths and exit or interest with a strategic in about two years. So now you understand the baseball analogy.

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage participation.
~~ Rank a variety of designs to get a variety of entries.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed! Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ When you provide feedback to designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested." We'd like to know what you don't want so we can give you the design you do want.
~~ Designers earn points for designs ranked 1st - 10th. We like to earn points.
~~ The first phase of the contest is the "Open" phase, and everyone can submit during that time.
~~ After your contest's initial "Open" phase closes, it will enter the "Top 5" phase; only the top 5 ranked designers will be able to submit revisions at that time.
~~ The "Top 5" designers are the first 5 designers in a contest, not the first 5 designs.
~~ When "Top 5" ends, the "Judging" phase begins. The designer of the 1st place design will be the only designer who can submit revisions at that time.
