Space elevators were developed by various Multi-corporations in convenient locations on Earth Galapagos, Kirbati, Kilmanjaro, Puncak Jaya, and several more.
Earth’s most beautiful and remote destinations get a dose of steel.
The elevators consist of long cables tethering expansive space platforms in High- and Low-Earth orbit to points on earth, as well as climbing machinery that efficiently (albeit slowly) transport materials from Earth into orbit, and vice-versa. These elevators enable for the first time the exploitation of near Earth resources, and low-grav manufacturing and medicine at scale (and apartments with some pretty awesome views).
The riches of space fueled the rise of the Multi-corporations, a consolidation of previously unknown wealth in the hands of the organizations responsible for building and maintaining the Elevators. These Multicorps would drive Earth history for the next 50 years.
