Valtari

Valtari Technologies, Inc., is a multinational technology conglomerate based in Venceia, Caphiria. The company owns and operates social media company Thinkpages, the messaging and video conferencing app Nuntia, the consumer electronics retailer Electron, and the WorkSpaces X productivity software, among other products and services.

Valtari was founded in 1978 by Caphirian programmers Sarino Antellion and Călian Veschertio to develop software programs for the ITM Blue personal computers. Its first operating system, ValtariumDOS (VDOS), was a commercial failure despite gaining international coverage for its advanced features. In 1981, Urcean executive Ronan Rentius joined Valtari as its first outside chief executive. Under his leadership, the company released the Valtari-1000, a custom ITM Blue machine that came with Valtari WorkSpaces, a suite of office productivity tools aimed at office professionals. The Valtari-1000 became a best seller and one of the first mass-produced microcomputers. The company went public in 1984 and achieved instant financial success. On August 19, 1988, Valtari announced the VID Framework, an alliance with Kiravian software company IXCO Digital. VID's purpose was to create a unified, open-source digital framework for software and hardware products and provide interoperability globally. The VID Framework revolutionized the tech industry, with other companies and developers quickly adopting it as a universal standard. In the early 1990s, Valtari - still under Rentius' leadership, experienced significant growth, thanks in part to its dominant position in the PC software market. In 1993, Valtari purchased Codicis, an e-book and audiobook distribution service. Over an 8 year span, the company went on an aggressive acquisition spree and purchased 11 additional companies. On 3 January 2006, Rentius resigned amid rumored misconduct allegations.

On January 20, 2006, Kiravian businessman and entrepreneur Vidor Riśakarin was named the next chief executive of Valtari. Under Riśakarin, the company purchased Nuntia in 2009, an instant messaging and VoIP social platform. Valtari also rebuilt WorkSpaces from the ground up with WorkSpaces X,, offering a suite of productivity software, collaboration and cloud-based services. Valtari became the first software company in Caphiria to reach $1 billion in annual revenue in 2010. In 2011, Valtari acquired Electron, a consumer electronics retailer, for $8.4 billion.

Today, Valtari is one of the largest technology companies in the world and is considered one of the Big Three tech firms in Caphiria, alongside Petalstone Electronics and Arpal. In 2019, Kolm Èvxevma succeeded Riśakarin as Chief Executive, with Riśakarin's taking the title Strategic Executive Advisor. Co-founders Sarino Antellion and Călian Veschertio, with Riśakarin, remain employees, board members, and controlling shareholders of Valtari.
