About the Project

JV One is a corporate venturing company first identified in 2012. The mark pairs a custom rounded wordmark with an eagle motif split into bold red wings and a steel reflection.

Brand Origin Story

History & heritage

JV One was conceived in 2012 as a corporate venturing company — backing and building new business opportunities. The eagle was chosen deliberately: keen-eyed, ambitious and unafraid of height. The custom wordmark and the eagle's split wings became the brand's signature, and the original work paired a decisive red with a grounded grey to balance passion with judgement.
