Chiron

Chiron Group is a Terran Intergalactic conglomerate headquartered in New York Hive City. It comprises numerous affiliated businesses, most of them united under the Chiron brand.

Chiron was founded by Albert in 2305 as a software firm. Over the next several decades, the group diversified into areas including cybernetics, brain interfaces, securities and Artificial intelligence research. Chiron entered the cybernetics industry in the late 2310s and the securities and AI industries in the mid-2360's; these areas would drive its subsequent growth. Following Albert's death in 2402, Chiron was separated into four business groups – AI Group, Security Group, Software Group and the Cybernetics Group. Since 2495, Chiron has increasingly galaxised its activities and services; in particular, its cybernetics and software have become its most important source of income. As of 2520, Chiron has the 6th highest galaxy brand value.

Chiron has a powerful influence on Terran economic development, politics, media and culture and has been a major driving force behind the "The great expansion", the massive Terran colonization of known space. Its affiliate companies produce around a fifth of Terran total exports. Chiron's revenue was equal to 17% of Terrans's $1,082 trillion GDP.

Chiron culture revolves around efficiency and practicality, unlike their competitor Boris, they care less about how a product looks or behaves and more on producing as much products as possible for the consumers to buy. Most people don't mind the ugly look of Chiron products since they are still quiet functional and easy to use, however those with more refined tastes would go to Boris cybernetics.

Chiron is a huge competitor of Boris and has been fighting for a higher position in the market for decades, Chiron has always been fair in their competition, but it's rumoured that they are not above finding other ways to get rid of their enemies.
