Mindwalker of the Outer Rim
Corporation Name: Blades and Blasters Network (BBN)
Headquarters: Zeltros
Locations: Has network buildings at the capital planets of every major intergalactic governments, which stream fights to the rest of the planets of said government.
Operations: Televises fights from across the galaxy, as well as provides betting odds and lines for said fights.
Rationale: H.V Jones founded the company after wanting to get into the business of televising fights across the galaxy.
Tier: 2
Description: The company uses droids scattered across the galaxy to locate fights of powerful individuals, such as Jedi, Sith, Omega Pyre, Mandalorians, etc. The company then takes the data of the fight, advertises for fight using glimpses of footage of the fighters for a couple of days, then displays the battle on a paid channel that can also be 'rented' in a pay-per-view fashion. Not only this, but betting lines and odds are produced on who you think will win, and how quickly.
The company does not produce any actual physical products, and only sells screentime, not electing to sell any of their fights in holovid format. While the company broadcasts to the homes of all major intergalactic government's screens, it also requires significant upkeep costs in order to maintain profits. In order to find the best fights you need to find the best fighters, wherever they may be, and thus most of the company's money is spent on the purchasing of droids to go out and find fighters, which constantly need to be replaced due to frail nature of the droids. So while the network itself is large, so are the upkeeps and thus the profit margin of the company are akin to that of a much smaller business.
