Tuesday April 6, Soul Santé Café, 8.30am-10am, AED60, including breakfast
VEGAN Entrepreneurs UAE is joining forces with Soul Santé and Dubai Vegan Days to present its first breakfast networking meeting on Tuesday, April 6.
The event, which takes place with full compliance with COVID-19 health and safety measures in place, invites all those interested in learning more about veganism, vegan business and opportunities in the growing plant-based sector to join in on the 1.5 hour event.

Guests will be charged AED60 to attend but admission includes a vegan breakfast, muffin and drink - as well as the unrivalled opportunity to meet and discuss business with like-minded plant-forward entrepreneurs.

Carly Dubrey founder, Vegan Entrepreneurs UAE and e-retail site Not Just For Vegans, will introduce the Vegan Entrepreneurs UAE group and its aims to bring people together for business collaboration, followed by a talk regarding Soul Santé by founder Manisha Advani. Finally, Ananda Shakespeare, founder of Dubai Vegan Days, will present a brief talk on how to maximise PR and marketing for your vegan enterprise in a world still dominated by eating animals and cruelty.

Dubai Vegan Days' Ananda Shakespeare says: "Dubai Vegan Days brings people together in a social setting to learn about veganism and is delighted to be associated with the Vegan Entrepreneurs UAE network."

Dubai Vegan Days is a fun, friendly food-based concept launched in 2018, offering everyone a chance to try good food, meet open- and like-minded people and perhaps learn more about what it means to be a vegan.

Did you know?

1. Vegans do not suffer from a lack of protein. There is more protein in broccoli than beef. Lentils, spinach and almonds are also protein-packed and contain other great nutrients too. You simply do not need to consume meat to get protein. Other vitamins and minerals that are widely and easily available to vegans include Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 and Vitamin C.

2. Going one year without paper saves 8.5 trees. Going one year without beef saves 3,432 trees.

3. The list of famous and influential vegans is enormous, including: Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, Alicia Silverstone, Ellen Degeneres, Joaquin Phoenix, Woody Harrelson and Casey Affleck.

4. If everyone became vegan, billions of dollars could be saved in worldwide healthcare annually.

[About Veganism]

The term 'vegan' was coined in the UK in 1944. A man named Donald Watson invented the term vegan when he co-founded the Vegan Society, based on the fact that 'Ve gan' is the beginning and end of vegetarian, literally and figuratively. At first, he used it to mean "non-dairy vegetarian", but from 1951 the Society defined it as "the doctrine that [people] should live without exploiting animals".
