Starrware Industries

Starrware Industries is a research and development firm established by Karen Starr, located in Metropolis' Tomorrow District.

Founded in the 1980's, Starr financed the corporation through strong, optimistic investors such as Harlan Brooks, Karen commits Starrware's efforts towards progressive technology in providing solutions to the planet's environmental problems. Brooks eventually challenged Karen's ability to run the company, calling a board meeting to vote upon whether she was still qualified enough to head Starrware. However, in the 1990's, shortly before the Information Technology-bubble burst, Karen sold the corporation, earning a vast fortune.

In the early 21st century, Karen committed much of her resources to buying back shares of the corporation and returned as the company's CEO.
