Call for Speakers: China Vegan Summit 2025

The China Vegan Summit 2025 is the fourth annual gathering of visionary leaders and changemakers driving the plant-based transition across China and beyond.

From the very beginning, the summit has been an international platform — bringing together voices from across sectors and continents to shape a future that works for people, animals, and the planet. Scientists, entrepreneurs, chefs, policy advocates, and community leaders come not only to share their work, but to connect, collaborate, and inspire action.

At the heart of this movement is 茻 (mǎng) — a symbol of flourishing plant life and the regenerative force of nature. It also stands for possibility: the idea that by transforming what’s on our plates, we can reshape culture, economy, and community.

But building this future requires more than vision — it takes collaboration. That’s why we’re calling on scientists, entrepreneurs, policymakers, chefs, farmers, creators, and activists to come together — and help lead the change.
