One of the most powerful commerce guilds in the Republic, the Techno Union is an organization made up of major technological manufacturers. Starship, computer, weapons and droid developers banded together under the leadership of the Union to further their own business ends.
The Foreman of the Techno Union was Wat Tambor. He allied the organization to the Confederacy of Independent Systems
during the start of the Clone Wars, committing the Union's vast technological resources and droid armies to the
cause of the Separatists.
Many of the galaxy's most industrialized worlds are key members of the Techno Union. Factory planets like Fondor, Foundry, Mechas III, Telti, and Metalorn churn out cutting edge technology to a galaxy that has become increasingly reliant on innovations for day-to-day needs.
Respected corporations such as Baktoid Armor Workshop, Haor Chall Engineering, Republic Sienar Systems, Kuat Systems Engineering, TaggeCo, BlasTech Industries, and the Corellian Engineering Corporation are all signatories, to some degree, of the Techno Union. To protect its intellectual properties and technological assets, the Techno Union had been given alarming freedom to maintain its own droid security as protection. Shipyards and research laboratories grew to house huge droid armies, which were eventually funneled to the Separatist cause during the Clone Wars.
