In the year 2034, humanity is finally setting it's first steps into space, and were humanity goes, money follows. A benevolent friend to some, an all consuming evil dust to others. Point is, you're CEO of one the few compagnies to actually negotiate your way through all the permits required, and obtain a license required for astral trading. Not that there is any interstellar travel at this point, it's all highly theoretical. But it also includes the privilege of developping systems for the newly founded Mars colonies, or the asteroid miners, or even wholy new directions.

There's a small demand for cargo/people transport to Mars
The small martian base lacks the means to expand

There's a small demand for cargo/people transport to the Moon
The small lunar base lacks the means to expand

There's a larger demand for cargo transport from the outer belt to mineral buyers

Some scientists want to send an unmanned expedition to the outer system.

Spoiler: Research (click to show/hide)

Research is done in multiple phases. First there's preliminary research, which always cost 5000*.
Then a development fee is placed, which varying cost.
After the technology has been used, there might be an option to improve it.
This might cost some money

Spoiler: Making Money (click to show/hide)

Money is made by proposing solutions to the contractors, or cashing in on other opportunities you think feasible...

A project has a description(important), the associated technologies, and a budget. (Often, 25.000) Most of the time you will be designing stuff and selling it, to other opportunities might arise too.

Some operations are 1 time things, others last longer.

Your compagnies headquarters is situated on the endless red plains of Mars. High tech goods are fairly hard to get here, but raw materials are cheaper. The lowered gravity also makes launching ships significantly easier.

Ceo : Alexandria Kitty
Company name : Kittens conglomerate
Funds : 100,000
Primary area of expertise : Super structures/Block construction.
Location : Asteroid belt.

Your compagny is currently managing a small mining outpost in the asteroid belts. As such, raw materials are very cheap here, though you need to import high tech goods, which is fairly expensive.

CEO name:  Kyle Johnson
Compagny name:  FTW Inc.
Funds: 100.000
Primary area of expertise:  geoforming
Location:  Titan 4 (And this is where, exactly? I'm assuming Saturn 4, or the moon Titan)

Are you certain you want to place your compagnies headquarters at an uninhabited planet, which at this point is still almost a decade away from any sign of civilization.

CEO name:  Markus Dendy
Compagny name:  Greenspace Enterprises

Thanks to your location on Earth, you're in a prime position for sales, as well as very near all technological development. Raw materials are fairly expensive though.

Your compagny is one of the few ones to actually do any economical activities on Mars. Mining here is greatly appreciated by the local governement.
