Saheli, a female social enterprise founded in 2015 that empowers women in Rajasthan through ethical fashion. While attending a wedding in the rural village of Bhikamkor, Madhu Vaishnav noticed how every woman owned a sewing machine as part of her marriage dowry. This was an opportunity. Saheli utilises existing skills among women to co-create slow fashion garments with international fashion partners.

Subko Coffee Roasters, a Specialty Coffee Roastery and Craft Bakehouse who seeks to put the Indian subcontinent on both the coffee and craft baking map. Working directly with coffee estates and smallholder farmers, Subko roasts small batches of carefully sourced Arabica coffee, and from different fruit varieties – bringing you the most deliciously meticulous and complex cup.

‘Dialled In’ London (venue: The Cause), a one-day festival that champions the breadth of South Asian creativity.

Booking in advance is most wise.

The Juggernaut, an online publication that brings to light South Asian histories and stories that might go unseen or forgotten. Founded in 2019 by Snigdha Sur, the subscription-based website covers everything from politics to culture to business to tech, celebrating South Asian heritage while also challenging any mistaken narrative in community or history books.
