Answer 12 (2 of 3) [STG] The three Gigacorps
General Analytics
Almost the sole survivor of the internet boom General Analytics (G.A.) rose to power in the aftermath of California's "Big One". Alastair Rawlings had founded a successful tech company that had gained high market penetration and developed some unique software that both used users devices as a sensor net and predicted trends from undiscovered nuances in the data. His company was subject to a fierce bidding war between three of the tech giants of the twenty teens, he eventually sold his company for a ludicrous amount of money and began working for the buyer in the interim. Just before the 8.4 magnitude quake hit the San Andreas fault Alastair used the entirety of his wealth to short sell primarily California based tech stocks. This business deal, the infamous picasecond takeover and even more infamous fractal ownership legal defense exponentially increased the size of Alastair's wealth. Gone are the tech giants of the early twenty-first century, in their place is General Analytics. There is a book, Independently published using entirely non electronic means titled "Rawlings; the most successful psychopath" but that's just the work of a paranoid kook....
General Analytics is the big player in a number of areas even though it may not be obvious to most observers.
Activities include
- Big data
- Cybernetics
- Consumer electronics
- Consumer software
- California
