Biography edit · view history
Thomas Bidaux's career started at France Telecom, within the GOA team where in December 1999, he was recruited to manage their online games. He was the MMG Events & Support Manager for the titles Rumble in the Void, FireTeam and La 4ème Prophétie.
He grew the activity from a one-man team in charge of the first French MMORPG, to the European organisation in charge of the large MMORPG Dark Age of Camelot in August 2001. In September 2004, he left to set up the European subsidiary of the online game NCsoft. Acting as the development director for the company, he managed the team who brought many online games to the European market, including Guild Wars and City of Heroes.
In late 2008, he created the consulting agency ICO Partners, focusing his efforts in taking independent developers further and help them reach their full potential across the globe. He has also been an active participant in many industry-related events, sharing his expertise as often as possible and working on democratizing the development of online games in Europe.
