History
In 2658 Hester Gabun, one of the managers and founders of Biotech Industries founded a special department named Tangent.

Due to the tense political situation in 2722, Tangent Technologies branched off from Biotech Industries and became an independent company. Damon Jordan was appointed manager. Two years later, Robert Jordan presented the key to the headquarters of Tangent Technologies Incorporated to his son Damon and retired to enjoy his old age.
In his will, he stipulated that whichever of his two sons (Seymour and Damon) could show higher sales for his enterprise (Biotech Industries and Tangent Technologies), would inherit both companies. Since then, Damon and Seymour have been engaged in a vehement struggle. The companies' balance sheets are almost equal, but Damon is slightly in the lead.
