Hands-On Innovation: Visual Branding for Founders Using Canva
Your brand is the first impression your startup makes .. Make it count!
This workshop is part of the Orange Corners Palestine community events. In four focused hours, you'll turn your startup's scattered visuals into a clean, professional brand identity, built live, on your own startup.
Facilitated by Ahmad Salhab and Dana Musaffar, this is not a design lecture. It's a practical workshop where you leave with real assets ready to use.
What you'll walk away with:
Define your startup's brand personality and visual direction
Build your own mini brand kit, including colors, typography, and visual elements
Create reusable templates for social media and presentations
Use Canva AI tools to accelerate content creation
Develop professional branding assets for your startup
Who this is for:
Early-stage founders looking to build their startup’s brand identity
Flow alumni refining their visual presence
Entrepreneurs who want to improve their pitch decks, social media visuals, and marketing materials
