Have you noticed we have a new look? 👀 E Tipu: The New Zealand Future Food and Fibre Summit has had a gentle facelift for 2025. You may have seen our updated Tohu and designs on LinkedIn and on our website lately. We wanted to celebrate the alliance between FoodHQ and E Tipu: The New Zealand Future Food and Fibre Summit which is expressed thorough the new colours in the E Tipu tohu/icon. Growing together is the key theme for E Tipu 2025 which is honoured in the design that can be seen on our recent posts. This tohu brings to light that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. Everything is connected. #Growingtogether requires room for change. We aimed to illustrate the connection between the sectors by incorporating their representation within the tohu. At the centre of our 2025 visual system, we have this room. Room for focus—a lens at the centre of us all to see through to what’s possible.
