End of another year meant it was time for the corporations of Kikyo to show off their projects. While certainly not the largest of the Trade Shows, the Ryu Clan's "Kikyo Defense and Consumer Expo" or "KI2EX" this year was being held on the Pisces Station within the Xylar System. Chosen for its international status, it was a potential networking opportunity with other corporations within the sector. As such as long as they were not a hostile rival or located within a hostile faction to Yamatai, they made a habit of sending invitations to everyone not excluded.
Normally only smaller and unknown corporations hoping to create an opportunity for themselves ever responded and came. But this year, the Ryu Clan were expecting a different result to boost themselves. With their Keiretsu partnering with the much bigger Yugumo Corporation, they were expecting Yugumo representation at the show. And where one major corporation is, others are sure to follow along to not be up ended. At least that was the logic the Ryu were going with.
Located within Concourse B of the station, two cargo holds were being rented to hold the trade show. One of the right side of the hallway was dedicated to the Defense Industry within the Kikyo Sector and was the largest of the two. How else are they going to cram the mock ups (or real) of frames, tanks, and various other large defense related technologies. Certain members of the clan love to focus on this side of the economy as there never seems to be a shortage of people wanting to buy arms and those that want to sell them. Security provided by Black Crane Securities is of course naturally tight.
The other, opposite of the first venue, was a smaller secondary cargo hold that would host the Consumer and Service Industries. Safely aware from any potential accidents that could potentially happen on the Defense side of things. Though security is not any less tight due to the large platform to the rear of the cargo hold (also found in the other cargo hold) dedicated to public speakers showcasing corporate products/projects, and the fashion show normally associated with the trade show. Watching occasionally half-naked models was always an excellent means of gaining the attention of passing Nepleslians.
Areas had been marked and prepared for a number of vendors and booths that had responded to the invitations, but there was plenty of reserve space left over for other invitees that had not responded and for anyone to claim as an open invitation to truly unknown corporate entities. Opening officially in the 2nd week of the first month of YE 44, there was time to prepare and socialize before hand.
