INNOVATIA HEADQUARTERS - CONFERENCE ROOM - 9:30 AM
The Innovatia headquarters occupied twelve floors in New Eden's commercial district. The building had stood empty for a year before Cassia purchased it—a victim of the last tech bubble burst when a promising startup collapsed spectacularly.
Now the building hummed with activity. Developers on floors three through seven. Marketing and PR on eight. Operations and HR on nine. Executive offices on ten. Server rooms and technical infrastructure on eleven and twelve.
The building's location was perfect—central business district, easy transit access, surrounded by restaurants and services. New Eden itself was one of the Federation's mega-cities, built after the Great Unification as a model of efficient urban planning. Vertical gardens climbed the building exteriors. Maglev trains ran overhead on elevated tracks. The air was clean thanks to atmospheric processors installed throughout the city.
