How to start a vegan business

With David Pannell, founder Vegan Business Tribe

For many of us who start a vegan business, we do so as our form of activism – a way to both help the vegan cause and align how you make a living with your ethics. But just starting a vegan business is not enough, you need to have a successful and profitable vegan business if you are going to help move the vegan cause forward.

In this session:

  • The number one reason why you should start a vegan business.
  • The number one reason why you shouldn’t!
  • How to ensure your income is covered while starting a business.
  • Will you find enough customers for vegan products and services?
  • Is now the right time to start a business?
  • How to find your niche (and no, your niche is not just ‘vegan’).
  • How to prove if your idea will work or not, and why you need to do this before spending time, money and energy.
  • How to get started even if you don’t know what your business is going to be yet.
  • The realities of funding a vegan business and getting investment.
  • How to create time to launch a business.
  • How to find support from others on the same journey as you.
