VEGPRENEUR is excited to announce a new partnership with the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies to provide VEGPRENEUR members with access to a full scholarship for the Plant Based Nutrition Certificate program, a $949 value.

In a time marked by rising chronic disease rates and escalating healthcare costs, consumers are increasingly skeptical of bold claims and vague wellness promises. They are looking for clarity. They want evidence. They want to understand what truly works.

For CPG founders, operators, and leaders, this shift presents both a responsibility and an opportunity. The responsibility is to speak accurately about health. The opportunity is to stand apart by grounding your work in credible, science backed knowledge.

Learn From the Leading Voices in Evidence Based Nutrition

The Plant Based Nutrition Certificate brings together 25 world renowned experts who have shaped decades of nutrition and health research, including:

  • T. Colin Campbell

  • Michael Greger

  • Neal Barnard

  • Caldwell Esselstyn

  • Dean Ornish

Participants gain a deep understanding of:

  • The current state of health and nutrition

  • How a whole food plant based lifestyle prevents and can help reverse the leading causes of death

  • How to translate nutrition science into practical, real world change for individuals, communities, and customers

Why This Matters for Consumer Product Founders and Brands

As a founder or operator in the food industry, your credibility matters. Your customers, retail partners, investors, and community increasingly expect you to understand the health context behind the products and solutions you are building.

Completing this certificate signals that you take the science seriously. It gives you the confidence and language to speak about health responsibly. It helps you avoid misinformation while strengthening the trust people place in your brand.

For many VEGPRENEUR members, this knowledge becomes a competitive advantage in conversations with buyers, media, and consumers.
