Tenet Partners wins premier awards for its evolution of the Bluetooth® brand

Firm receives a silver and two bronze Transform Awards North America, medaling for the sixth consecutive year

New York, NY (October 9, 2025) – Tenet Partners, a leading brand and strategy consultancy, has been recognized with three 2025 Transform Awards North America for its collaboration with Bluetooth® to evolve the organization’s brand.

The brand evolution earned recognition for excellence in both strategy and design, earning:

  • Silver – Best Brand Development Project to Reflect a Change of Mission, Values or Positioning
  • Bronze – Best Brand Evolution (Corporate)
  • Bronze – Best Visual Identity from the Technology, Media and Telecommunications Sector

The awards, given by Transform Magazine, honor the very best work in the field and are one of the largest awards competitions in the industry and the only awards program in the region to celebrate the transformative power of rebranding and brand development.

The Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group), the not-for-profit that oversees the development of Bluetooth technology standards and the licensing of Bluetooth technologies and trademarks, was looking to redefine its brand and reflect the breadth of its application to connect not only consumer, but also commercial and industrial users.

On the foundation of the powerful the Bluetooth name and logo, used by more than three billion people globally, Tenet Partners helped Bluetooth articulate a renewed purpose and positioning while evolving the iconic identity for the next generation of connectivity.

“Bluetooth is one of the most recognized brands in the world, and this project demonstrates the power of strategic evolution to embrace new futures,” said Hampton Bridwell, CEO of Tenet Partners. “We’re proud to have worked alongside this iconic brand to express its remarkable purpose with clarity and confidence.”

“They challenged us on our assumptions and delivered results that exceeded our expectations,” said David Hollander, Vice President, Marketing, Bluetooth SIG. “We saw a 12x increase in engagement across social channels during the launch period. If you’re willing to bring Tenet into the heart of your process, they’ll bring insight, creativity and momentum that you can’t get elsewhere and will move your brand forward. We’re thrilled the Transform Awards has also recognized the impact of our work.”
