The Reed Corporation was founded by Dr. Alan Reed. In 2080, Dr. Reed landed a contract with the US Military to develop the Synaptic Link technology. After patenting the Synaptic Link five years later, Dr. Reed continued his research in to cybernetics. His goal this time was to allow transfer of human consciousness in to data streams that could meld with computer technologies, while in cyberspace the operator's bodies were kept in immersion tanks. Backed again by the military Dr. Reed began work on the NEXUS Intruder Program. After three years with little progress, the military abandoned the programme and cut Dr. Reed's funding. Reports at the time claim that Dr. Reed was furious and vowed to have his revenge on all who got in his way. It appears that Dr. Reed may have succeeded in his goals and completed the NEXUS Intruder Program - the similarity between NEXUS and Dr. Reed is striking.
