Gaeatronics

From Jackpoint

Gaeatronics is an AA-rated multinational corporation owned by the Salish-Sidhe Council headquartered in Olympia. They are most well-known for providing power to much of the west cost of the North American continent, including Seattle, Tír Tairngire, and the California Free State, but are also engaged in ecological, geological, and atmospheric research.

Like much of the Salish-Shidhe, Gaeatronics is very 'green', focusing on environmentally-friendly technologies, presenting itself as the 'eco-friendly' option. Much of the power they provide is from the fusion plant in Olympia, supplemented with other alternative green sources such as wind and solar in the Cascade mountains and geothermal tapping along Mt. Rainier.

> Word has it that they support eco-terrorist attacks on competitors to gain an edge in the industry. They deny any such accusations, of course. -- Tarlan

The Seattle branch of the company is headquartered at 119 West Groat Point Drive in Bellevue, in a huge stepped-level structure topped with greenery such as trees and shrubs. While the company CEO David Gray-Bear makes regular visits to the Seattle office to deal with the delicate multi-national nature that the company has, the day-to-day operations are headed by VP Deborah Joshua.

> Most employees are NAN nationals, and a company pass is enough to get them into Seattle soil. The company says that it leaves the politics to the politicians, but David Gray-Bear is related to tribe leader Harold Gray-Bear, leaving one wondering exactly how many of the employees are also NAN spies. -- Steel Source
> While its astral defenses are top-tier, their matrix defense is a joke compared to other AA corps. They'd probably do better if they contracted it out. -- 0dPatch
>> That might have been true a few years ago, omae, but my decker friend would beg to differ... -- Archangel
>>> Gaeatronics is a bit more diversified than its "Powering Seattle... Naturally" façade: it recently quietly acquired holdings in companies dealing with matrix infrastructure and biotech. I imagine they also picked up a few tricks along the way. -- The Seattle Vixen
