==History==
===[[Season One]]===
{{season summary|season=One}}
The Company works to study and [[the mark|tag]] [[evolved humans]]. [[Mr. Bennet]], a regional manager who runs a [[Primatech Paper Co.|company facility]] in [[Odessa, TX]], studies new cases, looks into the research of the recently deceased [[Chandra Suresh]], and attempts to stop the evolved serial killer [[Sylar]]--while at the same time attempting to defy the Company by protecting his own adopted daughter from them. His assistant, a seemingly mute [[Haitian]], reveals that he is also trying to protect [[Claire]]. Another agent, [[Eden McCain]], comes to reject the Company's mission, and in the end sacrifices herself to stop Sylar from gaining her ability. [[Isaac Mendez]], a [[precognition|precognitive]] artist, works with the Company. He attempts to stop [[Peter Petrelli]], whom Isaac believes will cause a foreseen [[explosion]] in [[New York City]], but is eventually [[Sylar's victims|killed]] by Sylar.

Three of the Company's former victims--[[Ted Sprague]], [[Matt Parkman]], and [[Hana Gitelman]]--[[anti-tracker alliance|team up]] to find answers. After discovering that [[the mark]] they all bear is a [[the Company's tracking systems|tracking device]], they confront Bennet and inadvertently expose his efforts to conceal Claire from his employers, leading him to leave the Company and [[Anti-tracker alliance|team up]] with them. Meanwhile, Bennet's former boss, [[Thompson]], enlists the assistance of Chandra's son [[Mohinder]] to cure [[Molly Walker]], an evolved human the Company uses as yet another tracking system.

Matt discovers that [[Mr. Linderman]] is funding the Company. Thompson and [[Candice Willmer]], another powered agent, work closely with Linderman to ensure [[Nathan Petrelli]]'s election by kidnapping [[Micah Sanders]]. Linderman hopes to use a pending [[explosion]] to unite the country behind Nathan.

[[D.L. Hawkins]] and [[Niki Sanders]] kill Linderman and rescue their son Micah from Candice. Bennet and [[Matt Parkman]] kill [[Thompson]] and rescue [[Molly Walker]]. Meanwhile, Hana Gitelman destroys the other tracking system, a satellite in space.

[[Sylar]] confronts [[Peter]] outside the Company's [[Kirby Plaza building|Kirby Plaza facility]] and causes Peter's [[induced radioactivity]] to become unstable. [[Sylar]] is stabbed by [[Hiro]] and disappears into the sewers. [[Nathan Petrelli]] flies his brother [[Peter]] into the sky, preventing the explosion from destroying NYC.

===[[Season Two]]===
{{season summary|season=Two}}
The Company is now run by [[Bob]], who approaches [[Mohinder]] after a speech to offer him a job with the Company. After demonstrating his [[alchemy|ability]], Mohinder agrees to help further research the [[Shanti virus]] that affects [[evolved humans]]. Bob assigns Mohinder to go find [[the Haitian]] and cure him of the virus using his blood's antibodies, then bring him back. However, Mohinder [[mental manipulation|forgets]] ever leaving New York, and Bob realizes that Mohinder's cure works. Mohinder later arrives at [[Isaac's loft]], where Bob tells Mohinder that this is his lab. Mohinder is later sent to bring in [[Monica]] and observe [[adoptive muscle memory|her ability]]. Bob asks Mohinder to inject her with a strain of the virus that should negate her abilities without killing her, but Mohinder objects. Bob apologizes, then assigns [[Niki]] as Mohinder's partner.

After various [[Company founders]] are killed, [[Nathan]] and [[Matt]] go to [[Primatech Research]] to warn Bob, and the three, Mohinder and Niki devise a plan to stop [[Maury]], who has targeted Bob. Maury [[telepathy|turns]] Niki against Bob and Mohinder, but she stops herself by injecting herself with the virus. Matt stops Maury and saves [[Molly]] from Maury, rendering Maury unconscious and in Company supervision. Bob shows Company surveillance of [[Peter]], which shows Nathan that Peter survived the [[explosion]]. Bob suggests to Mohinder that they use [[Claire]]'s blood to help save Niki from the virus by combining her [[regeneration|regenerative blood]] with his antibodies. Mohinder admits to Bob that he is plotting with [[Noah]] to stop the Company, and Bob gives him a weapon.

Four months prior, Bob and Elle take in Peter after the [[explosion]]. Using [[power negation pills]], they keep him in a [[Peter's cell|cell]] to protect others. His cell is next to [[Adam]]'s [[Adam's cell|cell]], and the two talk. Adam convinces Peter to stop taking the pills and use his [[empathic mimicry|ability]] to help the two escape and save Nathan, who is in the hospital after the explosion. After injecting Nathan with Adam's regenerative blood, Adam and Peter are tracked down by Elle and [[the Haitian]]. Adam escapes, but the Haitian [[mental manipulation|erases]] Peter's memory and locks him in a shipping container.

Mohinder is partnered with [[Elle]] and the two are assigned to kill [[Noah]]. Meanwhile, Bob attempts to capture Claire for her regenerative blood. Noah and [[West]] knock out Mohinder and capture Elle, then arrange a switch for Claire. After taking Claire's blood, Bob and Mohinder bring Claire to Noah and West, while Elle is returned to her father. Noah is shot in the eye, while Claire and West escape.

Noah is revived with Claire's [[regeneration|blood]], and is kept in a [[Noah's cell|Company cell]]. Elle is given the task of watching Claire, but is caught by Claire. She threatens to expose the Company, but is discouraged by Noah, who Claire thought was dead. Meanwhile, Mohinder uses his blood's antibodies and Claire's regenerative blood to create a cure for the virus. He goes to save Niki, but receives a call from [[Sylar]], who is with [[Molly]]. Mohinder goes to his apartment, and Sylar holds Mohinder, Molly and [[Maya]] hostage until he is cured. Mohinder finds that Sylar was infected with the same strain of the virus as Niki, and steals the cure from Mohinder before Elle can stop him.

They all follow him onto a subway train, and Noah realizes that all the members of the Russian's "family" are in fact the same man, shifting his age from young to old. Noah wonders how dangerous the Russian really is, and although Ivan points out that anyone with an ability can be a threat, Noah knows that they still possess humanity. When they finally catch up with the Russian, he age-shifts into a child. Claude says that Noah cannot shoot a young boy, but Ivan reminds him that his age is an illusion. Noah pulls his gun and wonders whether he can bring himself to shoot.

[[Noah]], [[Claude]] and [[Ivan]] have cornered [[the Russian]] on a [[Moscow]] subway train. The Russian has used his [[age shifting]] [[ability]] to turn into a young boy, and Noah's hesitation to shoot a child gives the Russian time to break a window and escape from the train. As they leave the station, Ivan berates Noah for not shooting, but Noah has a hunch about the Russian's hiding place. The three go to a large marketplace, and Claude expresses his belief that the Russian is not really a killer, but Noah is doubtful. Claude sees the Russian, still in his child form, and lies to Noah to try to help the Russian get away. Ivan soon spots the Russian in the crowd and calls him out, in a successful attempt to make the Russian age-shift back into an adult body, a much easier target for Noah. The Russian pulls a knife on Ivan, but Noah shoots him [[Death|dead]]. The three Company men share a bottle of vodka later, but Noah secretly blames Ivan for forcing him to kill.

==[[Heroes Evolutions]]==
In the webisode series based around Rachel Mills, it is revealed that, despite the loss of Primatech Research, The Company is still active: Mills is kept in an active Primatech facility in Tappen, NJ. It is during this time the Company secures an active sample of the genetic modification formula created by Pinehearst with stolen Company information. However, this may have just been a final action of the Company as its now shut down which Angela tells Claire and even insists to Noah Bennet in Cold Wars.

==Quotes==
"''[[The Company]] was formed thirty years ago with a [[group of twelve|group of like-minded individuals]], ordinary [[evolved humans|men and women]] who were gifted with extraordinary [[powers]]. They wanted to help their own -- to [[bag and tag|find them and to protect them]]. We find people, and we make sure they don't become dangerous. Now sometimes that can mean making sure they understand entirely what they're capable of and teaching them to use their abilities for the good of mankind ... and sometimes it can mean eliminating them.''"
: - Bob (to [[Mohinder]]) (''[[Four Months Later...]]'')


==Notes==
* Referencing the Company, [[Mohinder]] tells [[Thompson]], "As far as I can tell, you're all a bunch of untrustworthy goondas" (''[[The Hard Part]]''). ''Goonda'' is a Hindi word meaning "a member of a crime gang or a thug"<!-- as opposed to a "gunda", which is a fruit used for pickling-->.
* According to the [[Heroes Interactive:Kindred|Heroes Interactive for ''Kindred'']], the Company is often referred to as the Company 2.0 by the writing staff.
* According to a [http://blog.9thwonders.com/modblog/2008/08/ask_heroes_082208.php#more Q&A on 9thwonders.com] with executive producer [[Jesse Alexander]], the Company is not associated with or known about by any branch or agency of the U.S. Government.
* The Company's leadership has changed multiple times. [[Daniel Linderman]] appears to have been in control from sometime before the series began until he was killed on November 7, 2006. Sometime later, [[Bob Bishop]] took control of the Company and ran it until his own death on March 21, 2007. [[Angela Petrelli]] took control the same day and became the current leader of the Company. All three were founding members of the Company.

The Company, also referred to by its cover name Primatech, is a clandestine organization that has an interest in locating and tracking evolved humans.

About

The Company was founded in 1977 by a group of twelve individuals. It uses cover companies (e.g. Primatech Paper Co), to conceal their illicit operations, or provided support or resources for whatever reason. The standard operating protocol involves Company agents to locate and track evolved humans, letting some go but keeping the ones they deem dangerous locked away, or even killing those who are deemed too great a risk.

The Company has two main tracking systems. One division marks people with special abilities with an isotope which can be later used by a satellite to track and find them (though this satellite has now been destroyed). In certain cases, this division also trains those individuals to assist the Company. The second "system" was a girl named Molly Walker who has an innate ability to find people, but she has now left the Company. Mr. Bennet's superior, Thompson, took orders from Daniel Linderman, who, along with Angela Petrelli and others, had been planning the events surrounding the explosion for an extended period of time.

Since Linderman's death or even before, Bob Bishop has been running the operations of the Company. Due to Bob's ability, the Company is not stressed with financial concerns. Among other items, agents are known to have access to standard-issue clothing, guns, night vision goggles, tasers, and transportation. In addition, each agent receives a Company expense account to purchase other non-Company items.

Besides field agents, the Company also employs internal affairs agents, scientists and doctors. At Primatech Research, Donna Dunlap worked for a time in internal affairs. While performing an investigation, she used the services of a research library, medical examiner, chemical analyst, and ballistics.
