Page Industries

Page Industries is a huge multinational corporation involved in several industries. These include robotics, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, cytometry, and construction. It is also involved in the manufacturing of cappuccino machines, as well as computer hardware and software.

Background
It was founded by Bob Page before 2027 and led by him until his death in 2052. Page Industries was a major power behind the push for nanotechnology. It helped advance nano-augmentation and developed other applications for nanites through its subsidiary VersaLife and the secret organisation Majestic 12. Page Industries also participated in the enhancement project that JC Denton and Paul Denton went through.

Page Industries was given permission by the NSA and the Hague Commission on Secure Communications to develop a new revolutionizing internet protocol. This would lead to the development of Aquinas which, according to Bob Page, would make bandwidth "for all intents and purposes, free". By 2052 all of the worlds internet traffic was carried by Aquinas. Unbeknown to the public, Aquinas was also monitoring all internet traffic that passed through it by Majestic 12.

In 2052, Page Industries lost a furious bidding war with the company McMoran Global Steel to transport ore from a new Chinese mining operation on the moon. Page Industries then attempted a hostile takeover of McMoran when it was apparent it would lose the bidding war. Sometime later, the first shipment of ore failed to arrive due to the transport ship malfunctioning and crashing into Earth for strangely unknown reasons. It is implied that Page Industries was responsible for the crash of the transport ship, potentially as a form of revenge for losing the contract. In the same year, subsidiaries of the company constructed a new submarine pen at the Brooklyn Naval Shipyards. This sub pen was subsequently used by Majestic 12 to house a superfreighter transporting the Gray Death virus to New York.

After 2052 with the death of Bob Page, Page Industries is assumed to have been disintegrated.
