The woman whom Colonel Stevens presents the Predator's plasma blaster to is called "Miss Yutani". When the movie was still a prequel of Alien (1979), this means that she is obviously the founder of the Yutani Corporation, which was later reorganized as the Weyland-Yutani Corporation from the Alien franchise when the two corporations were merged. By taking possession of the Predator's advanced weapon, this means the Weyland-Yutani Corporation knew about the Xenomorphs and the Predators long before Ellen Ripley's first encounter with a Xenomorph in Alien (1979). Moreover, when Ms. Yutani says that the world isn't ready for this technology, Colonel Stevens rhetorically asks "but this [technology] isn't for our world, is it, Ms. Yutani?", hinting at the space mining and terraforming of other planets that the Weyland-Yutani Corporation is known for in the Alien movies. However, after the release of Prometheus (2012), the AvP films were no longer considered Alien prequels, even though it is possible that the xenomorphs and the Weyland-Yutani Corporation also exist in the AvP or Predator universe, albeit as separate entities.
