From Geneva.
From 2029.
Halverstone was founded as a single architectural practice in Geneva in March 2029, in the early years of the climate emergency. The original firm specialized in resilient civic infrastructure — hospitals, water treatment facilities, government buildings — engineered to remain operational through the disruptions then anticipated.
Within a decade, demand for that engineering capacity expanded faster than the firm. By 2042, Halverstone Architectural had built or co-built civic infrastructure in 47 nations. By 2055, the firm had absorbed two heavy-construction operators, established a systems engineering division to manage facility integration software, and opened applied research labs in three regions.
The decisive year was 2085. The founding of the Global Continuity Initiative consolidated Halverstone's existing operating relationships into a single perpetual framework. Halverstone Operations was named operator of record for the Low Orbit Array Constellations. Halverstone Defense received Charter Defense Integration status across 94 signatory governments. Halverstone Systems became the platform provider for what would become the 
Humanitas Trust Continuity Assessment Platform.
The Group has not stopped growing since.
