I am a graphic designer and have been for 25+ years. Among the projects I have worked on are over 130 corporate annual reports (some with Fortune 100 companies) and corporate identity.

A few days ago I emailed Robert Ferri and, after disclosing my shareholder status and summarizing my professional background, I asked:

============

What role might you be playing in terms of evaluating someone that can assist POET with a new logo/identity, and eventually, an annual report? I would presume the annual will be filed for some years to come in the simplest electronic form, the 10-K, but I do suspect POET would benefit from a new logo and that they would be open to this. Of course there will also be branding in the future tied to their logo.

But for now, can you tell me if POET is open to considering designs for a new logo? I would be honored to have an opportunity to submit designs to, and work with, the POET team.

============

Should I expect to hear back from him with this sort of approach? I have already been playing with some new designs that I think are a vast improvement over what they currently have.

Thoughts?
