History and background

Founded in 997, Delgado is the youngest of the megacorporations.

History-Era: New Era

Former Imperial megacorporation still in existence in the Regency and the Spinward States. Delgado specialised in an odd trifecta of publishing, mining and miniaturization. Since the Collapse, the surviving parts of the company have sold or spun off all of their publishing wing, and expanded into new nanotechnology and micromanufacturing industries. Whereas many Imperial era corps have stagnated in the face of new local competition and more stringent Regency regulation, Delgado has forged ahead in research and development, and has been a leader in microengineering and Viral countermeasure technology. Delgado and General Products run the joint venture General Mechanics corporation.
