Contingenci® Founder Linda Tang Shares Insights on Sustainable Business Development at University of Oregon MBA Conference

SAN JOSE, CA, Nov. 18, 2024 -  Contingenci® by Good Human is happy to share a significant achievement by founder Linda Tang, who was invited to speak on her approach to and integration of sustainable business practices with graduate students of the University of Oregon. Tang spoke to students taking the Sustainable Business Development course, a core requirement of the college’s highly esteemed Master of Business Administration (MBA) program. This program is ranked as the #4 Green MBA in the United States by The Princeton Review. This opportunity allowed Tang to highlight the impactful contributions to sustainability and innovation in the veterinary and pet product industries that Contingenci® has achieved.

Tang has been at the forefront of eco-conscious business practices with her strategic and dynamic leadership. She has spearheaded the brand’s manufacturing method of upcycling materials from major athletic apparel partners like The North Face into premium and durable veterinary products. With features like orthopedic cushioning and water-repellent exteriors, these innovative items help consumers save money on utility costs and reduce harmful emissions. This organizational model exemplifies how companies can successfully blend environmental responsibility with profitability for the greatest benefit of all stakeholders. 

Tang’s visionary insights have been acquired from her experiences in the sustainability and fashion industries. With a background in product engineering and quality assurance, she is no stranger to utilizing forward-thinking to revolutionize inadequate standards. Tang highlighted that the innate purpose of her brand is to reduce environmental impact while providing high-quality deliverables. This interactive lecture offered students a firsthand look at tangible business practices that can be taken to reduce risks, embrace sustainable initiatives and contribute positively to society, as well as emphasized the importance of prioritizing core brand values through action.

Tang’s journey and the company’s achievements will continue to inspire the next generation of business leaders. By sharing her experiences and lessons with future changemakers, Tang and Contingenci® are poised to lead by example and encourage businesses to adopt sustainable practices that benefit society, one industry at a time. By giving smaller organizations the opportunity to speak out and teach, the structure of larger corporations will be forced to adapt to meet the contemporary needs of the people and their planet.
