The Hartford Unveils Refreshed Brand With Modernized Stag Logo
As part of the brand launch, company expands philanthropy programs, renames holding company and business segments HARTFORD, Conn., February 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Hartford launched its new brand, featuring a bold, contemporary look for its iconic stag logo that honors the company's rich history while demonstrating its modern, visionary spirit. "As we embrace an ambitious growth-and-innovation strategy centered on our customers and their changing needs, our brand must evolve with the business," said The Hartford's Chairman and CEO Christopher Swift. "The new brand celebrates The Hartford's strength, built on centuries of trust from the businesses, workers, and people we support every day. The modern design points to our bold future, inspired by innovation and a relentless focus on our customers." The company's stag logo remains the centerpiece of the brand, symbolizing strength, confidence and resilience. The new design reflects the grandeur of "The Monarch of the Glen," a painting completed in 1851 by Sir Edwin Landseer, which has been an inspiration for The Hartford's logo since 1875. This modern representation showcases the stag looking over his herd and gazing confidently into the future. "Our modernized brand is a representation of who we are as an insurance leader and how we demonstrate to customers, through our actions, that we prioritize their needs and uphold our commitments," said The Hartford's Chief Marketing and Communications Officer Claire Burns. "This is a valuable opportunity to create lasting impressions and deepen relationships with customers, employees and the world at large." The company updated its color palette and typography to create a vibrant new identity that leaves a memorable impact. The new core colors are – black for stability, claret for the company's heritage, and fuchsia for modernity. Additionally, white and warm-gray will enhance the design of company materials, providing clarity and balance. Starting today, the company's brand will be visible to the public on TV, digital platforms and The Hartford's refreshed website. Following the initial launch, the company will roll out advertising for specific business lines and continue to update its branding across platforms and materials over the next few years. The Hartford worked with agency partners Pentagram and Solve to develop the refreshed brand identity and new campaign. Philanthropy Focus On Small Businesses, Mental Health As part of the refreshed brand, the company is increasing its annual philanthropy spending by more than 30%, to help support small businesses, revitalize main streets in historic downtown neighborhoods, and address mental health stigma in the workplace. This includes an expansion of the company's Small Business Accelerator pilot with Main Street America (MSA), which creates commercial space and repurposes blighted storefronts helping small businesses with access to affordable commercial real estate and restoring vibrancy to communities. Over the next three years, in partnership with MSA, The Hartford will develop multi-use commercial space in 15 communities across the country benefiting 1,500 small businesses. In addition, the company is expanding its partnership with Active Minds, providing mental health resources and support for the next generation of workers. This includes sponsorship of the Send Silence Packing® exhibit featuring 100 backpacks with 100 personal stories covering themes of loss, survival and resilience. With The Hartford's support, Active Minds will bring the educational event to 60-80 colleges and communities this year, reaching more than half a million youth and young adults in the U.S. Name Changes For Holding Company And Business Segments In conjunction with the brand launch, The Hartford updated its holding company name to The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc., effective today.
