I think the corporations are part of the backstory, and most of all the in-game ships will be gotten from what the factions design.

BAHRAM Is proud to announce that in a joint venture with Tukuro Design Academy, we have been given training in technical expertise and manufacturing techniques enabling as of yet unheard of artistic expression! Now our Cinnabar complex and external artist workshops and manufacturing centres are able to fabricate and mount beautiful decorative embellishments! The secret lies in the patented CARBOMESHBLEND™ pioneered by TDA's in house artists. The process is a simple yet elegantly expressive! A carbon lattice weave is first modelled and then painstakingly printed in zero gravity, inside specially quadruple wide three dimensional print shops. From there any standard metallic elemental colour is available to be applied via the MESHBLEND™ technicians and their machines. The result? Unbelievable quality and decorative detail! ( Highlights from a recent battleship test mounting)We here at BAHRAM hope to work closely with Tukuro in the future to offer a wide variety of aesthetic products and designs to meet an array of deadly-yet-practical roles!

While we here at Verolan Space & Aeronautics fail to see the reason for adorning a battleship with a golden statue of a pegasus, we congratulate BAHRAM and TDA on their successful test, and look forward to seeing what they achieve in the future. In other news, orbital tests for the new Orbital Defense Craft design have commenced. Our invitation to the CEOs of Altarris Heavy Industries and Apophys Electrics still stand, and we also extend invitations to the CEO of Trident Heterogenous Engineering Systems and the individual in charge of the BAHRAM School of Tactical Philosophy and Strategic Engineering. (Out of character, newageofpower , apophys , deskjetser , and argonbalt , if you guys are interested in seeing the screenshots for the design I'll be submitting as one of the things that will be built by Verolan Space & Aeronautics, I would highly appreciate it if you guys would either post a reply in this thread or PM me. If I don't get any replies, I'll just PM the designs I hope to submit for this project to The Astronomer .)

No; I meant produce.
Here are two companies, sorted by color. Critical information in boldface.
Our product This is a commercial broadcast on behalf of Samaracorp, we offer high-quality designer crew members and colonists to suit your needs in space! We being a leader in the field of genetically engineering in humans, we provide humans to spec for use in spec. Their genetic material is selected to be ideally suited to the needs they can fill in your company or colony, but are all intelligent enough and versatile enough to perform in whatever set of needs your space society finds itself desiring. Despite being genetically designed, our products are not clones; each man or woman we breed has subtle genetic idiosyncrasies to ensure the versatility and adaptability of any population you wish. Genetically, they are also conditioned to accept the society they are part of, although at the same time they still have enough individuality and independence to compose an adventurous, democratic society in space, as well as to serve dutifully for your spacecraft.
Not only do we produce our quality crewmembers and colonists, we also train them! Specific training requests are honored, but the individuals that we produce are skilled in a wide variety of space-colonization tasks, including spacecraft operation and maintenance, scientific data collection, hydroponics, and even command and operation of combat spacecraft. Specialized skills with specialized tasks can also be trained. Do you need slightly-built crewmembers in order to save on life-support and maximize the delta-V of your ships? Or burly men and women who can serve as space marines should the need arise? All of these and more are available!
Multiple financing is available. Payments in phosphorous are appreciated.
About us Samaracorp's headquarters are located in a 2,500 km2 section of land in the historical nation of Ecuador, South America. Our headquarters take up roughly one square kilometer of land, with the rest as a nature preserve to remind us of our purpose: the expansion of Earthly life into space. Daily tours are available, but roughly half of the area is reserved for our employees and our breeding stock to visit. We have been providing our products or variants thereof since the late 21st Century.
Our habitat where our genetic engineering, raising of children, hydroponic agriculture, and training facilities are located on two space station colonies in solar orbit between the orbits of Earth and Venus. We rely entirely on solar power for our facilities and everything dependent upon them. The orbits of our space stations intersect twice each revolution, from which we transfer children and young adults from the lab and breeding facilities to the training facilities. Because our mission is to facilitate space colonization, we happily provide colonists and crewmembers to any outfit that we can afford to service.
Persons interested in contributing to our DNA bank should contact us at our office on Earth or in our space station in Earth orbit.
Warranty and caveats While our company's products are human beings, our company mission does not condone slavery. The men and women that we sell are provided with genetic tendencies that instill a desire for independence and self-reliance in them as well as responsibility. This means that they will work for you dutifully for the duration of their contracts if acquired as spacecraft crews, put their lives on the line willingly to fight your wars, or will act as citizens of your nation if bought as colonists. However, if bought as crewmembers for a spacecraft they will expect to be treated as employees, and if bought as colonists they will expect to be treated as citizens with a right to vote in whatever electoral system your nation uses. By buying our product, you agree to hold us harmless for any mutinies or revolts should you disregard this warning. If this possibility causes you concern, we advise you to interview our product members before purchase beforehand.
Golden Eye Intelligence Services provides up-to-date intelligence on spacecraft, corporations, and governments in space. Headquartered at the New London colony (I don't know where that would be at this time but if it hasn't been established then I suggest Luna), we can provide you with reports, files, ship movement records, technological design specs from all spacecraft manufacturing corporations in the solar system. Nothing escapes our telescopes, and unlike others, we record everything we see!
Governments accredited to the Protection of Homeworld Earth league may also contract services of our agents to spy on suspicious corporations or on rogue governments. In the finest traditions of the name of Golden Eye all of the way back to Fleming in the 1940s, our agents are available to do what need to be done!
There is more stuff to add (namely, a Golden Eye report on Samaracorp, but I'll post it later - I need to board a plane)

From: noreply@solarstandardization.comSubject: Welcome Letter Message: Hello my fellow peers and entrepeneours, it is I, Tessfield, CEO of SSOS. My company has become famous through its efforts to provide exoterran industries with standards to compare against and strive towards - we set the bar, any product that meets our standards is known to be of excellent quality and reliability. Furthermore, we have grown in our purpose: we provide and maintain the open source market for exoterran produced goods through our company's site, all modules and products reviewed by us and peers, with all their data available for comparison to potential buyers. We erased the need for advertisement on this playing field, whether small or gigantic, any individual or corporation has the same exposure through our site. We understand monopoly is a concern for certain individuals, and we have received complaints stating that SSOS should refrain from expanding beyond being the defacto exoterran standardization organization, but we assure these people that our vision is for the good of humanity; we would like to create "the system" for the exoterran playing field, in order to provide a better environment for the betterment of human kind. Allowing a single or several governments to decide over this is allowing corruption to create the rules for economic wars, and simply leaving this up in the air would have the same if not worse results. SSOS is a solar (ooc: global ), for the people organization, rest assured we are outside any kind of government, and allow the people who actually create or consume exoterran goods to make the decisions that matter. We put the power into the hands of engineers themselves. I welcome you to our advisors group, fellow engineer, where you can converse, advice, and or compete with your peers to create the best products possible for humanity. Sincerely, Tessfield, CEO of Solar System Organization for Standardization
From: tessfield@sossic.comSubject: Welcome Letter - Inner Circle Message: Hello, I am Tessfield, and I am writing directly to you - feel free to confirm the validity of the sender if you have your doubts. You have been privately contacted through other means to assess the possibility of you joining our Inner Circle, either directly or indirectly, and you have passed our tests satisfactorily; we are confident you will work with us, not against us. Rest assured working against us will result in retaliation, I strongly advise you do not take this route. This email serves as a short debriefing, you will be contacted personally to discuss things in detail, but experience has shown that a short, written debriefing severely reduces the time it takes to engage in proper conversation. The solar situation has forced us to become an active player: the rumours are true, we have built unmarked bases throughout the Kuiper Belt, and extracted all necessary personnel from our public facilities into our black operations branch until further notice. We are on Yellow Alert. You are an outsider, but we believe an alliance would be extremely beneficial to both of us, and we are inviting you, among several others, to join our Inner Circle - SSOSIC. Our vision is for the betterment of humanity, but I believe this entails hard work, sweat, tears, blood. Mine and others. Consensual. OR otherwise. The betterment of us all as a whole is impossible without an extreme removal of power. Communism. I like that vision, it is a fair utopia, but that's all it is. An utopia. Sentience rejects entropy. Capitalism is just the system we have, it doesn't matter what system we choose, there will be unfortunate people and there will be fortunate people. My objective is not to fix what's broken - if we are even to call it so, as we are the result of nature after all - but to take the power away from the people who would prefer it to be broken, through any means necessary; to let sentience prosper beyong the limits that we know today. What isn't under our control will be acquired, neutralized, or exterminated. We will become humanity's leader, and bring forth an era of peace. Enforced peace, but peace nonetheless. Eagerly looking forward to hearing from you, Tessfield, SSOSIC
OOC: I don't know if any of this is out of bounds or not, let me know what you think, and sorry if I step on anyone's toes here. SSOSIC is black ops exclusive, with construction and mining bases on the Kuiper Belt, aggressively defended and mostly hidden (as much as space allows; just lase anyone who gets close, stay unmarked and encrypted, etc.). Headquarters would be on Eris. They'd own two big carriers disguised as asteroids, one closer to rocky planets, the other closer to non rocky planets, on orbits that make it easy to access them. The asteroid carriers would be moved around through lasing from external companies which would own them under the excuse of research and testing. Each carrier would be able to send out a single non stealthy sub-carrier with an EM accelerator mechanism, and deploy drones for self defense.

Not sure I like this, mostly because the Earth Caretaker seems out of place.

[Note] The 'Earth Caretaker' will be replaced by 'Earth Preservation Treaty', the one which prevents factions from claiming Earth, but still allow humans to live on it.

I bet that will lead to a lot of black-ops, cloak and dagger stuff. We might wanna keep that in mind.
