Lite Corporation

The Lite Corporation (Logistics and Intrastellar Transport Enterprises) is a freight and transport conglomerate in the Divinity Cluster. The company has a virtual monopoly on intrastellar freight in the Edge Systems and the Kentaur Fleet, as well as more recently the Gatehouse system of the Throne Unions. They are seen as a threat to the interstellar transport monopoly of the System Logistics Society, who have been trying to annex the former for almost two centuries, to no avail. The conglomerate also have a banking sector ("The Lite Bank"). Due to being controlled by commonborn (as opposed to most megacorporations in the cluster being operated by nobility, such as Caerahime Shipyards), the necessity of its services is the bane of many Houses.

The Lite Conglomerate Corporations
The conglomerate is a trust between several large sub-corporations and dozens of sub-companies, including:
 * Lite Freight - the largest sub-corp within the conglomerate, tasked with the hauling and transport of bulk goods across the cluster. Controls Lite Freight Fleet, made up of Lite cargo ships and starfreighters.
 * Lite Logistics - the corporation tasked with contracting, renting offices, and setting up supply lines for the Lite Corporation.
 * Lite Security - division of the conglomerate dedicated to guarding freighters and scouting out untrustworthy clients and areas of space. Underfunded and understaffed, so freighters often hire out freefleets for additional security.
 * Lite Banking - holding corporation of the "Lite Bank", the largest banking service in the cluster.
 * Lite Colonization Services - Corporation dealing in transporting goods needed in the process of terraforming and settlement. Began as a small enterprise ("Wanderers' Colonization Services") working to colonize sparsely populated areas of Edge Systems planets, but witnessed an almost overnight rise to corporation status and Lite integration with the discovery and exploration of the Scattered Worlds (though the Lite Corporation does not often extend other services into that region of space).
