Wernstrom

Wernstrom is a fictional energy company featured in the animated television series Futurama. The company is known for its highly advanced and often dangerous technology, particularly in the field of robotics and energy production. Wernstrom is frequently depicted as a monolithic corporation with a significant presence in the New New York City skyline, its imposing headquarters a symbol of its industrial power.

The company's founder and CEO is the eccentric inventor Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth, who, despite his advanced age and senility, continues to lead Wernstrom with his groundbreaking, albeit often unpredictable, scientific endeavors. Wernstrom's innovations have ranged from the beneficial, such as the development of advanced robots and energy sources, to the catastrophic, including experimental weapons and hazardous waste disposal methods. The company's research and development department is staffed by a variety of quirky and often morally ambiguous scientists. Wernstrom's products and experiments are a recurring source of plot development and humor in Futurama, frequently leading the Planet Express crew into perilous and absurd situations. The company's pursuit of profit often outweighs ethical considerations, a common theme in the show's satirical commentary on corporate culture.
