St. Louis, Mo. (December 13, 2023) — Karviva™ is excited to announce that Founder and CEO
Angela Zeng, PhD, has been named to the National Small Business Association (NSBA) Leadership
Council. NSBA is the nation’s oldest small-business advocacy organization and operates on a
nonpartisan basis on behalf of its membership. Dr. Zeng, a recognized leader in the small-business
community, joins the NSBA Leadership Council alongside other small-business advocates from across
the country as they work to promote the interests of small business to policymakers in Washington,
D.C.
“As a small business owner, I see daily the importance of being involved and active when it comes to
laws and regulation,” stated Dr. Zeng. “Joining NSBA’s Leadership Council will enable me to take our
collective small-business message to the people who need to hear it most: Congress.”
After completing her undergraduate degree in biochemistry, Dr. Angela Zeng moved to the United
States where she completed her MBA at Washington University in St. Louis, her Ph.D. in Pathology at
St. Louis University, and a post-doctoral fellowship at Northwestern University. In 2017, she combined
her knowledge of herbal and modern medical science to launch a wellness beverage line now known
as Karviva. Her delicious, award-winning drinks include whole plant-based prebiotic smoothies,
antioxidant juices, sports recovery drinks, and a functional wine replacement drink.
Zeng joined the NSBA Leadership Council as part of her efforts to tackle the many critical issues
facing small business including tax reform, regulatory restraint, health care costs and how access to
capital will impact small business. The NSBA Leadership Council is focused on providing valuable
networking between small-business advocates from across the country while ensuring small business
a seat at the table as Congress and regulators take up key small-business proposals.
“I am proud to have Angela Zeng, PhD as part of our Leadership Council,” stated NSBA President and
CEO Todd McCracken, “She came to us highly recommended and I look forward to our coordinated
efforts for years to come.”
