Manu Barakat

CONNECTION: AR Glasses

DIGITAL APPEARANCE: No avatar CEO of SwooshCorp, originally from the Maldives, where he appropriated the seed money that built his empire by robbing the treasury. His original name―known to very few―was Shamin Nashid. Barakat has recently joined a “blackmail society” managed by Parnas Harn: a group of powerful executives and corporate politicians who perform “favors” for each other to consolidate their joint and individual power.
