Gansai Industries (Japanese: ガンサイ産業, 'Gansai Sangyō') is a Japanese-Korean multinational conglomerate prominent in the development of robotics, mining, and antimatter synthesis. It is a leading competitor of the AXIOM Corporation and has prominent stakes in several fields that AXIOM is also a part of.
Gansai gained rise to power through enormous investments in research and development which, coupled with grants from the Japanese and Korean governments, allowed Gansai to play a very prominent role in the development of technologies for East Asia. It is the primary defense contractor for the Japan Self-Defence Forces and also plays a major stake in the robotics fields in the Sol Defense Corps. The development of the antimatter reactor, a highly volatile and outrageously expensive mode of vast amounts of energy generation, is one of the company's greatest developments and a trump card in its perpetual game against its competitors.
Gansai is headed by its current Chief Executive Officer, Sakura Mikushumi.
