Corporate Assembly map, as suggested by Matthew in this post, where I asked you all for your inspiration. Thank you so much for the great idea, and I hope you like the map!

Inspired by the UN Assembly, this is a corporate take where the biggest and most important corporations meet to discuss (read: remove) regulations, make back door trade deals, and develop strategies (price fixing, intimidation) to strengthen their hold on the world of business.

After decades of buying up or intimidating smaller businesses, having almost complete monopoly on trade, and paying off political or influential persons, these corporations have evolved into something even bigger: Megacorps.

Megacorps are the ones who truly run things and call all the shots. Nothing gets sold or traded without their approval or even better yet, their direct involvement as one of the parties. It has become almost impossible to try and set up small businesses on your own, as these Megacorps will come in to buy you up, intimidate you, or copy your product and sell it at prices you cannot compete with, just to run you out of business.

However, do not be fooled by their luxurious conference rooms, seemingly civilized discussions, sleek demeanor and expensive suits: As soon as these guys leave the Assembly, they go right back to business. Undermining the competition, corporate espionage, sometimes violent intervention is the name of the game for these Megacorps, and they wouldn't have it any other way.

Variants
I removed the 'Corporate Assembly' wording on the wall for the variants, so it can be used for more varying settings as well.

Clean - Version instead of 'Night' map. This is a version that is is somewhat toned down on the neon, and can be used for a modern setting as well.
Evil - Not that the original intention isn't evil enough, does not hurt to have some red and black in there to really set the tone.
Mint - I imagine some kind of conference for Big Pharma to meet.
Wood - Just something about wooden panels/desks and blue carpets that looks good, gives a bit more Presidential, or perhaps military (Air Force?) vibe. Just always looks good!
