Company contacts turned off in Zoom

Your own contact list is not affected by the shutdown. For quick access in Zoom, the required contacts can also be stored there.

An anniversary year marked by many birthdays
In the 30th year of the foundation of our university it is possible to use a temporary addition to the logo of the OVGU. In this logo extension, attention is not drawn to the 30-year tradition of the university, but an anniversary year marked by many birthdays is visualized. The logo extension can be used selectively, e.g. for labeling event announcements or promotions related to an anniversary. Letterheads and signatures remain in the usual design according to the corporate design. The regular university logo also remains on the OVGU website.
