Cybus Industries was a company that existed on a parallel Earth.

History

As well as being an industrial corporation, Cybus Industries was also known to have covered media, housing, technology, construction, finance, airships, and the health drink Vitex. It was used to create a breed of Cybermen as part of the Ultimate Upgrade™ project.

It was created in 1982 and run by John Lumic. Pete Tyler worked for Cybus Industries as a right-hand man for Lumic, after his Vitex company was bought out by Cybus.

Cybus Industries provided the main communications network, CybusNet. Features of their service included the 'daily download' which downloaded news, sport, jokes and other into the customers' brains via EarPods. Another feature included internet access. Cybus Industries also purchased other companies and helped their owners develop their businesses. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen) Lumic authorized the global upgrade of all compatible humans after the Cybermen were revealed. (WC: Tardisode 6)

Even after their journey to the Doctor's universe and their affiliation with the company long over, the Cybermen of Pete's World continued to sport a "C" engraved on their chest that represented Cybus Industries. (TV: Army of Ghosts, The Next Doctor, The Pandorica Opens et al.) A historical account about the Doctor's universe recounted that it had been suggested that cross pollination of the Cybus Cybermen and the Cybermen of Mondas led to the advanced Cyberman model used by the Cyberiad, seen at Hedgewick's World of Wonders.
