Queen Consolidated was a company run primarily by the Queen family.
It was run by Robert Queen 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. Isabel Rochev was full CEO of Queen Consolidated with backing from Slade Wilson until her death.[1] During that time, she deliberately ran the company and many of its assets into the ground, looking to strip Oliver of his financial resources. At that time, there was an important subsidiary in Moscow. Queen Consolidated also has a holding in Melbourne, Australia.
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.
As seen in the future, Felicity Smoak seems to have become the new CEO, and renamed the building.
History
Queen Consolidated was founded by Robert Queen, after Robert death 2007, Walter Steele the company's then-CFO served as acting CEO, then CEO. After he 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.
Potential 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 announces 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.[2]
