Geocomtex

Geocomtex was an IT solutions company owned by multi-billionaire Henry Van Statten. (PROSE:, ) Geocomtex later expanded into the production of "cutting edge" technology derived from alien objects left on Earth, fuelling Van Statten's massive wealth and even giving him the influence over US presidents. (TV:, PROSE: )

Those in Geocomtex's employ included, but certainly were not limited to: Polkowski, Diana Goddard, Simmons, Adam Mitchell, Bywater, De Maggio (TV:, PROSE: ) and Sven. (WC: ) In total, the Utah base had over four hundred employees. After disposing of Van Statten following the massacre of two hundred employees by the Metaltron, Goddard took over Geocomtex. (TV:, PROSE: )

Van Statten owned a base near Salt Lake City in Utah, an underground fifty-three storey repurposed nuclear bunker, named the Vault. On the fifty-third floor, half a mile below ground, the Exhibit Room housed his collection of alien artefacts. (PROSE: )

Name
The name of the company was sometimes stylised as "GeoComTex", but more commonly as "Geocomtex". (PROSE:, , , etc.) In their advertising and on their website, the company's name was stylised as "GEOCOMTEX". (PROSE:, , etc.)

Early history
Geocomtex was founded in 1999 to combat the Y2K bug, (PROSE: ) after Henry van Statten's father reluctantly signed over the Van Statten Corporation to him before his death. (PROSE: ) While the company originally just specialised in IT solutions, (PROSE: ) given that one of Van Statten's father's personal assistants, Otto von Donitz, had taught him to invest his money into the telecommunications business, (PROSE: ) the company would expand into "every area of cutting edge technology", utilising scavenged and recovered alien objects left on Earth to create their technological and medical innovations. (TV:, PROSE: )

In the week following the Slitheen's failed attempt to plunge Earth into nuclear war on 6-7 March 2006, Mickey Smith (TV:, , etc.) interviewed Van Statten about his thoughts on aliens on his conspiracy website Who is Doctor Who?, (PROSE: ) as, by that time, Van Statten had become well-known for his interest in aliens. (PROSE:, ) Van Statten spoke about how Geocomtex funded his vested interest in the collection of alien artefacts, as well as generously giving Mickey a pile of Geocomtex hardware to offer as a prize for an alien-themed writing competition. Mickey also started advertising Geocomtex on his website. (PROSE: )

At this time, Geocomtex had a corporate website, (PROSE:, etc.) which contained a page displaying a selection of the products they sold, (PROSE: ) an FAQs page, (PROSE: ) a recruitment page, (PROSE: ) and a disclaimer. (PROSE: ) They later had a redesign. (PROSE: )

In 2007, the Leamington Spa Lifeboat Museum's security system used software from GeoComTex. (GAME: )

When the Tenth Doctor looked up H.C. Clements on a mobile phone on Christmas Eve 2007, he went past two websites when he used his sonic screwdriver to search the Internet. The first was Henry Van Statten's interview on Who is Doctor Who? and the second was the FAQs page of the Geocomtex website. (TV: )

Battle of Geocomtex
After arranging Van Statten's memory wipe and for the Vault to be filled with cement/concrete, (TV:, PROSE: ) Goddard usurped Van Statten after the death of the Metaltron. (PROSE: )
