History
Greydon became CEO of Defiance Industries in 2992. During his time as a MechWarrior in the 17th Skye Rangers, he saw a comrade die due to equipment failure from poor workmanship. Because of this, Greydon was famous for the stringent testing he put all of Defiance Industries' products through. Though he was long retired by 3025, he still enjoyed joining the Defiance Industries test pilots, occasionally taking new hardware out to the proving grounds for BattleMech wrestling bouts.[1]
Greydon's time in charge of Defiance Industries was characterized by aggressive growth for the company, undertaking many new ventures. One of Brewer's first actions as CEO was to acquire the Tolsand WarWorks factories on Furillo. In 2995, DI opened a fusion engine factory which would become Defiance Motors. The company unveiled the Patton and Rommel tanks, some of the first entirely new designs since the early Succession Wars, in 3020. Under his leadership, his company also formed strategic partnerships, including with the NAIS[1] and Nashan Diversified.[3]
Legacy
