I am trying to find a way of copying a sketch from a part to another part. The reason for this is because I sketch our company logo on some parts, and it is quite time consuming. So I want a way of effectively copy and pasting the sketch into another part, is this possible? The only way I can think of doing this is to create a new part, just sketch the logo, and then import it as an assembly. But I would prefer not to do it this way.

Any suggestions?

Select the sketch in the FM tree, Ctrl-c to copy, select the face or plane in the destination part and Ctrl-v to paste. You then will likely have to use the move/rotate command to get it exactly where you want it.

You can also create a Library Feature of the sketch & insert it as required.
