Corporations
There are several major
corporations and your
character may or may not have
been involded with them. The
following is a list of the largest and
most well known.
Crankor Industries , It is known for its large chain of stores ranging from large department stores to 24hr convenience stores. And it is well know all over the colonies.
Cyberscope lead the
way with implant technology and still does. It is Moon based and has offices
in most large Hot Spot. They have many research projects underway, almost
all of them classified.
Cybertechnology International
Though Cyberscope has the cutting edge of implant technology, Cybertechnology
has made itself by mass producing implants to the awaiting millions. It
has now diversed into security and weapons, though it still can't rival
D.H. (see later) in this field. It is believed that Cybertechnology is
going to use its mass marketing skill in this field to promote its
position.
The realman corps: This is the most know organisation to make illegal "Sens Recording". This organisation is known to make some of the most sick digital recording of senses on the market. If you want to feel death, to know what it is to die, this corpos has it all. The only problem is that most of the people trying those recording do really die or loose some mental senses... This is not a legal corporation, so you have to search to find them. They are paying a lot for illegal record from SIT team (lots of people want to feel the danger without being in it).
D.H.( David Humbart )Corporations
specialises in providing guards and specialist teams to most corporations.
Their Matador security guards & teams are a well known sight in most
Hot Spot though their numbers are small. They also have a weapons &
arms division and a special research department.

With the discovery of Cromalt, the company has found energy sources for thousand years. When you want to travel in space safely, you find yourself a MA pilot to hire (they are the best).
Space Security is the oldest security company in space. Originally, it was a section of Mining Astral, but in 3980 the section got sold to become the Space Security corp. Most of the security out of earth is done by this company. They have space transport and fighter. All their team are well train in space and most of them never have been on earth.
Midnight Explorer are the explorer of the universe ( and that’s what they say). This corporation has some Spacecraft that could take you almost anywhere in space, the only problem is that they don’t have the experience of the MA pilot. With some special team, they explore new planet. They are looking like a military style corp, but it is only in apparence. Most of the people workin in ME are only space pilot and explorer.
Power Mind is a corporation that make some of the finest skillsoft on the market. When it is made by PM, it is a sure thing. This corp only build skillsoft, but in a lot of different package.

in the world and few dispute it. It is known to provide almost any product
and any service imaginable
and a few more.
Maxis Research is
a medium sized corporation which survives by its diversification into many
different areas of business. It has a low media profile which aids it as
it has managed to exploit
several business areas. It has exploited several business markets successfully
with a subtle approach.
Medick inc specializes in health facilities. Most of the private hospitals belong to Medick. Medick does more than build hospitals though – it deals with anything that has a medical nature to it like qualifying doctors, nurses and pharmacist or funding medical research.
Master Security is a new corporation which specialises in providing security for office buildings and research properties. The corporation is beginning to increase its market share, even though it is comparatively new.
Neopharm, as opposed to Medick, deals only with medicine and drugs. Though Medick had tried to buy Neopharm, it didn’t succeed. Neopharm had taken the science of medicine research into a new era. With top of the line scientists, backed up by the company’s financial stability, one can expect wonders.Lately they have entered the field of bioware and the world impatiently awaits their results.
Seedek is the first
company to introduce cyberspace (on the global network) interface to the
world, and still the leading one. Most of the cyberspace presentation software
are Seedek’s ( besides some privately written software that has tendencies
to crush at the most inconvenient times). They have recently entered the
field of artificial intellignece and their new cyberspace products incorporate
some AI technology into them.
