Managing the Zoom Events hub Branding tab


Hub users can set up branding for all events and the hub profile page and enable or disable global branding, using the hub's centralized location, the Branding tab, for global settings. Hub users can use hub branding to personalize their hub to reflect their brand by creating specific color palettes and customizing page elements such as the background color, text color, button color, and other elements. 

They can configure the color palette for the entire hub’s content pages, customize the colors of various elements in the hub based on this color palette, and set it as the default. Once the default branding is set up, all the hub's content pages (hub profile, upcoming/draft/past event pages) will load the hub branding automatically by default. Event organizers can also store the event templates in the hub branding library.
