Company name: Sprachkraft
What we do:
Sprachkraft can be loosely translated as speech or language power. Part of the business is proofreading texts for correct spelling, punctuation, grammar, style, understandability. Additionally, the aim is to re-phrase texts written by engineers, technicians, scientists etc. so that more people outside their faculty can understand them.

energetic people who want to get ahead or start/bolster their career with their academic prowess
Companies in the technical, engineering, scientific, medical field that are brilliant innovators yet wish their "dumb" customers would undestand them better

Our Ideas and Additional Information:
We need a wordmark, one that should ideally be recognized as text by search engines
We also need a complete character set A-Z, a-z, 0-9 etc. plus the seven German specialities äöüÄÖÜß. For purposes of this competition, three sample letters of eiter case (like e g w, F M Z) will do. The winning designer would have to elaborate all characters.
Where we will use the Logo:
Mobile/Tablet App, Print, Web
