Description

In 218 AS, as mass production of Jump Gates moved into high gear, funding became an issue for many foreign corporate and government entities that wished to finance jump routes of their own. To encourage construction, Ageira Technologies and Deep Space Engineering capitalized a wholly independent entity, Interspace Commerce (IC), to offer loans and assist in the financing of jump-gate construction. By 350 A.S., IC became the primary financier of Trade Lanes for the other houses.

In a joint venture, IC and Ageira Technologies recently developed a new real-time scanner system, called Universal Ship Identification (USI), that can be installed in jump gates and trade lanes. It allows IC to track shipments and levy tariffs appropriately. Some houses suspect that IC is using this data to gain a competitive advantage, but so far, nothing can be proven.

Interspace is now heavily into insurance, and insures most high value cargo throughout Sirius.

History

218 A.S. - Company is formed by a partnership between Ageira Technologies and Deep Space Engineering to fund and stimulate Jump Gate construction in other houses outside of Liberty.

700 A.S. - IC and Ageira Technologies partner in a project to develop a system for real-time scanning of cargo passing thru trade lanes and jump gates.
