Vegan professionals will gather in Colorado Springs this coming Saturday to talk about business boosting strategies, vegan marketing and more, and the air will be thick with excitement and inspiration!

If you’re vegan it’s likely that you’ve found yourself, at one time or another, in a conversation with someone who isn’t vegan, and wonders why you are.
