With a bold new logo and the IntelligenceS for our futureS baseline, Excelia redefines itself as a visionary education group across France and the world.
Excelia, one of France’s top higher education groups, has unveiled a refreshed brand identity that marks a new chapter in its evolution as a multi-campus, multi-disciplinary institution. With a presence in La Rochelle, Tours, Orléans and Paris, Excelia’s rebranding reinforces its ambitions to shape the global education landscape while embracing a more unified and future-focused identity.
At the heart of this transformation is the updated XL logo, a modern visual symbol that blends openness and strength. Accompanied by the group name in bold red capitals, the design reflects Excelia’s values of Sharing, Humanity, Courage, Responsibility and Commitment. The three schools under the Excelia umbrella Business, Hotel & Tourism, and Communication will each sport individual logos in vibrant colour palettes, unified through the group’s signature corporate blue.
This rebranding effort stems from extensive consultations involving students, alumni, faculty and staff, aligning with the group’s 2025–2030 strategic roadmap. The collective input called for a modern, cohesive identity that supports Excelia’s growing international presence and reputation.
The new tagline IntelligenceS for our futureS captures Excelia’s mission to harness diverse intelligences in addressing the complex challenges of tomorrow. It underscores the institution’s aim to not only educate but also innovate at the intersection of academic excellence, sustainability and societal leadership.
This platform reaffirms our role as a benchmark institution in a rapidly changing world, said Bruno Neil, CEO of Excelia. It brings our vision and purpose into sharper focus uniting people and ideas to shape better futures.
Christine Bracaval, Director of External Relations & Communications, added, Our development over recent years has been both rapid and diverse. This identity asserts who we are, strengthens our visibility, and showcases our distinctive position both in France and internationally.
Excelia currently educates over 6,800 students and boasts a network of 47,000 alumni. The group holds prestigious global accreditations including AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA, EFMD and UNWTO.TedQual, reflecting its strong academic and industry linkages in business, tourism and communication.
As higher education continues to face globalisation, digital transformation and rising societal expectations, Excelia’s rebrand is more than a visual update, it’s a strategic declaration of purpose in a complex, interconnected world.
