GUARD DOG BRAND DEVELOPMENT RECEIVES THREE SILVER DAVEY AWARDS IN THE CORPORATE IDENTITY CATEGORY IN THE 5TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL DAVEY AWARDS FOR 2009

New York, NY (November 18, 2009) - The 5th Annual International Davey Awards has recognized Guard Dog Brand Development with a Silver Davey Award for the Corporate Identity Program it developed for the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (www.themmrf.org) as well as with two Silver Davey Awards for Infinity Pharmaceutical's 2009 Corporate Exhibit Booth.

The 2009 Davey Awards featured an incredible pool of over 4000 entries from the best boutique firms in the world; being honored with three Silver Davey Awards is truly a great accomplishment. It is a testament to the award-winning work that GDBD does.

"Having a healthy brand identity is so much more than just a logo or a look and feel. It's about uncovering the balance between a brand's emotional benefits and functional assets, and understanding how best to represent the corporate brand, particularly for leading organizations and companies such as the MMRF and Infinity Pharmaceuticals," said Camille DeSantis and Maria Casini, co-founders and co-presidents of GDBD. "We are thrilled that the corporate identities we developed with the MMRF and with Infinity Pharmaceuticals have been honored with these three prestigious awards."
