Syndicate Conglomerate

Description

The Syndicate, at face value, is a collection of Corporations, Organizations and Political Movements, of disparate, and sometimes desperate, origins and motives. The primary goal of the Syndicate, since its inception, has been to ensure the functional independence of its members in the face of Nanotrasen’s dominant share of the galactic market, and especially resisting NT’s effective dominion within Federation sectors. Despite the fact that it provides the largest truly united front against Nanotrasen, within, or without, the Federation, many Syndicate member organizations are distrustful of each other, and internecine feuding is common between members with long-outstanding issues.

While Nanotrasen would lay claim to business within the heart of the Federation, the Syndicate would see success in funding the colonization of the periphery of known space and in securing market share in border regions where Nanotrasen has less public clout to work with.
