1.2 Lock-ups with Rotary
Why the lock-up matters
It creates a consistent visual link between ICC and Rotary, reinforcing credibility, recognition and brand coherence.
Why Rotary's logo is included
It shows ICC's official connection to Rotary International and draws on the trust and global strength of the Rotary brand.

Generic lock-up

Executive Council

With district descriptor
D9220 - D9010

With country descriptor
Zambia - Mauritius
No other logos may be added to a lock-up. Descriptors (districts or countries) are added only through the lock-up generator in the Rotary Brand Center.
