Plexis Holdings: ubiquity and unity throughout the galaxy. Under the umbrella of Plexis Holdings, several subsidiary companies will operate in many systems throughout the galaxy, all supported by Plexis Holdings.
At least, this is the plan – if CIG ever get their act together.
Plexis Holdings was founded in 2874 as a merger of two companies acquired in a hostile takeover by a small organisation of activists known at the time as “The Plexus”. The activists were watching publicly owned companies who were particularly poorly run and not watching their shares closely. Over the course of a few weeks, “The Plexus” quietly acquired a majority of shares in the two companies and took them over, firing their Board of Directors and setting up their own. It was decided at this time to form “Plexis Holdings” with an intentional misspelling as a trademark and to set it apart from (but related to) the activists whose shrewd business acumen acquired the companies.
The Plexis Holdings Board of Directors then set out to restructure as a limited liability company (LLC) instead of a public company and re-wrote the by-laws so the hostile takeover they just accomplished couldn’t happen to them. As news of the takeover spread, the speed in which it happened shocked the business world, who had become complacent and comfortable thinking that the laws they had made through the Senators they controlled would protect them.
They did not.
Several legal battles ensued to try to reverse the takeover, but on 8/27/2874 the final case of Plexis Holdings v UEE was tried and found in favor of Plexis Holdings and the loop-hole they had profited from using. Other large conglomerates scrambled to tighten up their security even as the UEE’s government re-wrote laws to protect companies from similar attacks in the future.
After the legal battles were over, the Plexis Board of Directors restructured and re-named the two companies that were their entry points and turned their gaze to the stars and the future. While other companies have grown large more quickly, Plexis Holdings prefers the “slow and steady for the win” approach to organisation growth; acquiring new subsidiaries only after close scrutiny and forensic investigation of their business practices.
Today, Plexis Holdings turns its attention to the expanse of human opportunities in the galaxy, identifying business opportunities and new territories for established subsidiary companies. Certainly not the biggest kid on the block, but wherever you travel in the galaxy, you will likely see a Plexis Holdings ship or facility spawning the motto: Ubiquitas et Unitatis – “Ubiquity and Unity” for all our customers and comrades in the ‘Verse.
Plexis Holdings, as its name suggests, is a holding company for multiple autonomous subsidiaries operating under its umbrella. The habitable systems in the galaxy provide nearly unlimited opportunities for expansion and profit. Plexis Holdings provides a matrix upon which companies can build and prosper in the systems around the habitable Galaxy. Plexis Holdings’ companies operate with relative autonomy with the only stipulation being that they remain lawful within their local systems, ie: what is legal in Nyx may not be legal in Stanton, be aware of these circumstances. Plexis Holdings members may be employees of one or several of its subsidiaries. You are only limited by your imagination, personal ambition or ability to travel the vast expanse of space safely. Don’t see a company that does what you want to do? You may have discovered a business opportunity! Pitch your idea to the Plexis Holdings Board of Directors and you may find the backing you need to launch your new venture. Upon approval of your idea, Plexis Holdings will provide available assets and support to aid the new company’s endeavor.

The founding members of Plexis Holdings are mature in age (each is over 50). We do not have an age requirement but it’s good idea to know you’re gaming with Gen X geezers and we grew up getting the belt if we stepped out of line!
We are “Hardcore” as our Org page implies, but this does not mean that Real-life doesn’t come first. if something’s going on that means you can’t be on for a while just let someone know – we get it! Disappear without a trace and we’ll mark you MIA; then we’ll all have to get to know and trust each other all over again.
It is preferred that Plexis Holdings members have a military bearing; this may be acquired by real life military service or by close association to it. if you are delicate, we are probably not for you.
