Each of the six megacorporations in New Angeles is described in more detail below.

Jinteki Biotech

Chairman: Satoshi Hiro

Headquarters: Nihongai District, New Angeles

Key Industries: Androids, Agriculture, Articial Intelligence,

Biotechnology, Genetic Engineering, Medical Technology

“Jinteki was monkeying around with genetic material for years and

being a major biotech player, but they didn’t explode on the world

stage until they started making their own androids. ey call them

‘clones,’ even though that’s kind of a misnomer. I mean, it’s not like

they just nd a person they like and run o a zillion copies. Jinteki’s

genegineers—and yes, that’s what they really call them—can work for

years on synthesizing just the right genome for their next project. e

androids that walk out the factory door have a little bit of human, a

little bit of whatever animal or microbe or whatever, and a whole lot

of patented custom-built genetic material running under their hood.

e clones sure look and sound human, though; only the barcode

on their neck really sets them apart, for most of ‘em. But they’re

androids—property—things you can buy and sell and own, like a

hopper or a PAD.

Ever since the clones, Jinteki’s been re-engineering itself right alongside

their weird chimeras. ey moved from Old Nippon to New Angeles,

they got a new CEO, and they’re shedding a lot of the old zaibatsu

rigidity in favor a new, more agile, more progressive megacorporation.

Evolve or die, right? I’m not sure I want to get evolved.”

Haas-Bioroid

Director: Cynthia Haas

Headquarters: Manta District, New Angeles

Key Industries: Androids, Articial Intelligence, Cybernetics, Heavy

Manufacturing, Medical Devices, Robotics, Soware

“Haas-Bioroid got its start as a European engineering and industrial

manufacturing rm, back before they were called HB. en a few

decades back they merged with a little neuroscience and AI concern

called the Rossum Group and that’s when things got interesting. ey

made a brand-new machine called a bioroid, an articial person

that could think and act like a human being. When it caught on, they

renamed themselves Haas-Bioroid so no one would forget what they did

for a living.

Bioroids changed the world. Over the long run, androids are going to

be as revolutionary a technology as re, or the printing press, or the

Network. And Haas-Bioroid got there rst (a fact they’re never going

to stop rubbing in Jinteki’s face). eir bioroids kinda sum up what the

whole company is about. ey’re ecient, bleeding edge, a rational

solution to a pressing problem—well, that’s the pitch. No one seems able

to explain what problem bioroids are solving. But through it all, HB

proudly claims that their bioroids are ‘Ecient,’ ‘Reliable,’ and ‘Humane.’

Just like their whole company. And the concept of euthanasia.”
