Coat of Arms
The Information Technologists' Company was granted livery status in 1992, becoming the 100th livery company of the City of London.
|
|
Each livery company has an armorial bearing or coat of arms. Our own coat of arms symbolises our identity and objectives in the following ways:
-
Vert (green) is associated with video displays.
-
Azure (blue) and the stars scattered on the shield represent electricity, the power that enables IT. The stars also spread light, just as IT spreads knowledge.
-
Or (gold) is one of the best conductors of electricity.
-
The book and keys symbolise knowledge and access to knowledge.
-
The crest features Mercury, the messenger god, who embodies communication.
-
The griffin (half lion, half eagle) and Pegasus (the winged horse) symbolise energy, speed, intelligence and reliability.
Our company motto, Cito, means ‘swiftly’. As well as describing the way our members apply IT, the word incorporates the initial letters of our name, the Company of Information Technologists.
