The organisation was [[Foundation|founded]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Products (feature)|Products]]'') by [[Edward Van Statten]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek (novelisation)|Dalek]]'') in [[1999]] to combat the [[Y2K bug]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Products (feature)|Products]]'') Edward used the company to make millions in the armaments and oil industries. When his son, Henry, was fifteen, Henry invested his inherited one million dollars into the electronics, communications and telecommunications industries instead. The switch in industries proved successful and Henry quickly usurped his father to become the leader of the organisation, renaming it GeoComTex.
