What is a brand?

In a marketing context, a brand is how people perceive your product, service or organization. It’s what people think of you. How they feel about you. And why they support you.

Vital, impactful brands are built on truth and continuity. They are what they say they are. And they are united in how they say it, so you never confuse them with competing brands. That’s why so much emphasis is put on conformity of brand language and look, and why all brands have guidelines like this one.

The UCLA Health brand

UCLA Health has many different audiences: patients and their families, physicians, healthcare providers, staff, students, alumni, public servants and the community in Los Angeles, in California, and around the world. Our brand is what these audiences think, feel and respond to when they see or hear the name UCLA Health.

Because UCLA Health is connected to an outstanding university, our identity is enhanced by the growth of the UCLA university brand.
