401 - Is there a PAAB mandate anywhere that states that the pharmaceutical companies corporate logo has to appear on all PAAB reviewed and approved APS materials? We have a situation there are high-priority approved APS materials requiring printing; however the corporate branding is changing and won’t be fully established for some time.

No. PAAB code requires that the company name be disclosed except in cases where this could contravene some other regulation (e.g. help-seeking messages). There is no need for the company logo.

Hi Jennifer, I have the same question but when I read your response, I am confused by the 'no' and then the 'PAAB code requires that the company name be disclosed except ...'. This particular project is not a help-seeking message.

Hi @NatBourre, the distinction is “company logo” versus “company name”. The code does not require a company logo. However, the company name is required on all pieces unless it contravenes other regulations, such as help-seeking messages. The distinction between “logo” and “name” was particularly relevant to the question as it featured concerns about displaying the corporate logo in the midst of a corporate branding change.
