Conglomerate branding provides you the ability to define multiple themes within your organisation, from the Microsoft 365 global admin center, using Microsoft 365 Groups. Each theme can be further customised by specifying mobile-specific and alternate dark mode logo experiences.
Previously, you could only set a default theme which applied to everyone within your organisation. Conglomerate branding gives you the ability to create up to five custom themes for your tenant where each theme can be assigned to a specific Microsoft 365 group. Additionally conglomerate branding introduces support for:
Specifying mobile-specific company logo(s) optimized for smaller screens
Enabling alternate logo(s) for dark mode
Users will continue to have the same theme experience as before if you make no further changes. If an organisational theme has already been defined, it will now show up as the default theme. Editing the default theme or adding a new custom theme now provides the capability to specify up to four separate logos optimized for alternate and mobile scenarios.
Note: It is important to remember that the navigation bar background image will be retired and the ability to upload a new background image will no longer be supported. Upon saving any modifications made to a new custom theme, the background image will be permanently removed and users will no longer be able to see it.
