The wordmark of the Daejeon Institute of Science & Technology for Enterprise & People (DiSTEP) is created by combining the first letters of each word.
The initials 'D' from Daejeon and Daedeok symbolize the collaborative effort to create new value for the economic development of Daejeon City and the Daedeok Special Zone. The formation of the 'i' in 'Institute' represents the members of the Daejeon Institute of Science and Technology for Enterprise & People, who will lead the future of Daejeon as a global science city by building a platform for openness and innovation.
The red color in the DiSTEP wordmark symbolizes passion and confidence, while the blue represents technology and innovation.
