DesignUp has been amongst the largest meeting grounds for Designers, Design, Tech and Product Leaders, CXOs, Makers, Creators worldwide. But being the biggest, tallest, heaviest isn’t our goal. Relevance is. We have held fundraisers that have raised millions for charities, we’ve influenced careers trajectories, and more importantly showcased the relevance, power and leverage of Design to non-Designers.
