The goal of the Inteleos Foundation is to ensure patients around the world have access to quality healthcare from providers with validated knowledge, skills, and abilities.
We aim to make a beautiful mark on the world.
The Inteleos Foundation logo exemplifies the ideals of Inteleos and its family of Certification Councils. As with all Inteleos logos, the orange circle in the center signifies the patient. The dark blue dots embody medical professionals, and the light blue dots represent the organizations that work collaboratively with the Foundation.
These individual elements, brought together in the circular Foundation logo, portray community, inclusivity, and that collectively we can make a beautiful mark on the world.
