Background
A small cybertech firm founded in Vancouver, they migrated their headquarters to Seattle during the "business-friendly" Brackhaven administration. This proved to be a poor decision, as they struggled to draw in employees in the vast metroplex's competitive talent pool, and any gains from lower taxes were wiped out by losses in the employee pool as rivals like Evo worked to snipe all the most talented engineers and scientists. They found themselves sitting on a core of outdated hardware experts, outclassed by some of the world's best cybertech and biotech firms in the rainy city.
So they adjusted. No longer a R&D-heavy firm, they shifted their focus to cybernetics repair and lower-end products. Instead of using deniable assets to learn about their competitor's new products and trying to emulate them, they would use that knowledge to know where they were going to be losing money to their competitors and what fields they would need to compensate in. It was a desperate business strategy, one that hemorrhaged investors and depends on them not being boxed in by their competitors.

Current Status
Doing rather poorly. They've weathered the last few corporate audits without losing their A-rating, but it's been a close call.
