A bit odd the ‘Up’…?!*

A series of talks listed on the Designers Institute of New Zealand events page, titled Designers Speak®️ Up Hui “aimed at creating a conversation within the design community”, seems to have caused confusion!

To be clear, the Designers Institute of New Zealand’s “Designers Speak®️ Up Hui” is absolutely nothing to do with Designers Speak (Up). A bit odd the ‘Up’ … not to mention the emphasis on the registered trademark symbol?
