This year begins nicely — with a lot of work, just as I like it. :-)

Bogo Shopov from Bulgaria Web Summit asked me recently if I can create a new mascot for the event, and to integrate it with the conference’s website logo. I tried my best at the moment, and the following happened:

The concept is simple — the creature, Summitosaurus superioris, is a social and friendly animal, a kind of dinosaur.

(The event is not happening for the first time — in fact, Bogo is making these great things for so long now, that in internet terms it is almost close to ancient history.)

The back of the dinosaur is like a mountain peak and the reason for that is quite obvious — a direct analogy with the word “summit,” but also a hint that this is a top event. :-)

Summi carries a lot of knowledge and wisdom and is ready to share them with those who are not afraid to climb to the top.

The creature is a symbol of experience, competence, stability, power, friendship and sociability.

I feel quite content with the end result and what’s more important, Bogo liked it, too. What do you think?

*Also, if by any chance you have been living in a cave and you’ve never heard about the Bulgaria Web Summit conference, make a point of checking it this year. The people who attend it are a great bunch and the speakers are as amazing as ever! The conference will take place in Sofia, April 7-8 2017. Tickets are almost sold out, so hurry if you want to attend!
