Makhidkarun

From Traveller Wiki - Science-Fiction Adventure in the Far future

Makhidkarun, one of the three original Vilani bureaux, originated with the aristocracy, and emphasized interstellar government. Sometime in the shrouded in the mists of the Long Night, it transformed into a megacorporation. All that can be stated with certainty is that its corporate form pre-dates the Third Imperium. Makhidkarun specializes in the communications and entertainment industries. The firm produces fine musical recordings of all types, two and three dimensional motion pictures, books, magazines, and art reproductions of all sorts. Its communications division produces a wide variety of data processing, storage, and retrieval equipment and the requisite software for it. A gourmet foods division trades in all manner of rare and expensive foods, wines, and delicacies.

This old Vilani Megacorporation is not the largest manufacturer of robots, but it is the most innovative. The company's research staff is responsible for many of the Imperium's significant breakthroughs in synaptic processing.
