## History

### Origins

Originally founded as **Hinata Technologies** in 2155 by Katsuro Hinata, the small company was based out of the Japanese city of Nagisaki. In its early stages, the nascent company was most notable for its manufacturing of Smart OLED displays. The company quickly branched out into other industries, becoming important players within the biotechnology and defense fields. Following the aftermath of the Corporate Wars, Hinata Technologies acquired Japanese defense firm Aoki Dynamics as well as Ishibashi Biotechnologies. These acquisitions would later become Hinata Security Company and Hinata Biotechologies (respectively) in 2253, following Hinata Technologies' organizational restructuring into the **Hinata Group**. Hinata Security Company would be further diversified into offering PMC services by the 2270s.
