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 thats kind of a misnomer. I mean, its not like
they just nd a person they like and run o a zillion copies. Jintekis
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 theyre
androids—property—things you can buy and sell and own, like a
hopper or a PAD.
Ever since the clones, Jintekis been re-engineering itself right alongside
their weird chimeras. ey moved from Old Nippon to New Angeles,
they got a new CEO, and theyre 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 thats 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 theyre never going
to stop rubbing in Jintekis 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, thats 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.
