Changes: Queen Consolidated

Revision as of 03:01, 15 June 2019

Queen Consolidated was a company founded by Robert Queen and run primarily by the Queen family.

It was run by Robert until his death in 2007, then taken over by Walter Steele. After Malcolm Merlyn kidnapped Walter, Moira Queen became the acting CEO. Walter stepped down from his position as CEO after being rescued by The Hood. Later, Isabel Rochev became CEO of Queen Consolidated with Slade Wilson's help until her death. Afterwards, the company was bought by Ray Palmer and rebranded as Palmer Technologies.

Queen Consolidated has subsidiaries all over the United States^[1] and abroad, including Vancouver^[2] and a prominent corporation in Moscow, Russia.^[3] The company also has a holding in Melbourne, Australia.^[4]

In a possible future, Felicity Smoak became the new CEO and renamed the company to Smoak Technologies.^[5]

History

This section is a stub. You can help expand this section by adding some information.

Queen Consolidated was founded by Robert Queen. After Robert's death in 2007, CFO Walter Steele took over as CEO.

Over the next five years, Queen Consolidated began modernizing as they expanded into cutting edge fields such as biotechnology and clean energy, bringing the company to new heights. In late 2012, a separate site was commissioned for the Applied Sciences division, named in honor of Robert.^[6]

After Walter was kidnapped by Malcolm Merlyn, Moira Queen took over as acting CEO. Walter was eventually found and rescued by Oliver Queen (under the guise of the vigilante known as the Hood). Despite this, Walter resigned from his position as CEO, as he had figured out that Moira was involved in his kidnapping, as he wanted to get as much distance from her as possible. Moira continued to serve as acting CEO until she was arrested for conspiracy to commit murder; due to her involvement in the Undertaking, the board of directors removed her as the acting CEO for good.

Moira's involvement in the Undertaking not only resulted in a huge scandal for Queen Consolidated, but it also almost resulted in the company becoming bankrupt.

In April 2014, Isabel Rochev became full CEO of Queen Consolidated with backing from Slade Wilson until her death.^[7] During that time, she deliberately ran the company and many of its assets into the ground, looking to strip Oliver of his financial resources.

In late 2014, Oliver attempted to bid for his company back, but ultimately the board named Ray Palmer as CEO. As a part of his new vision, Ray shortly re-branded the company under his own banner, Palmer Technologies.

Possible future

Although during the present time, Queen Consolidated no longer exists as an entity of that name, there is some indication that a similar company may again come into existence; a newspaper from the future held by Eobard Thawne announced a merger with Wayne Tech of a Queen Inc., which has a title similar to Queen Industrial Inc., a sub-division of Queen Consolidated during its existence. It is unclear if the Industrial sub-division remains active under that name after the Palmer re-brand or it could indicate that control of the company eventually reverts to the Queen family.^[8]
