KEVIN BACHUS
CEO, Infinium Labs

One of the best-known and most highly respected executives in the video game industry, Kevin Bachus involvement in Infinium Labs™ marks his second game console launch. He was one of the original group of four individuals at Microsoft® Corporation who came up with the idea for the Xbox™ videogame console, an initiative that grew in part out of his role as group product manager for DirectX™.

As Microsoft's first director of third-party relations for Xbox, Kevin secured support for Xbox from all major game publishers worldwide and created and managed the programs and processes that would ultimately lead to the strongest software line-up ever for the launch of a game console.

Prior to joining Infinium, Kevin co-founded and served as vice president of publishing at Capital Entertainment Group (CEG), the computer and video game industry's first independent production company. CEG sought to maximize the potential of top-tier developers by managing the development of innovative, premium quality games in partnership with the worldwide publishing community. Kevin was responsible for all commercial aspects of product development.

Kevin also worked for the consumer software publisher Mindscape, Inc. in a variety of business and production roles.

Although he developed a number of games on his own during the early '80s, Kevin originally spurned a life dedicated to technology and opted to attend the University of Southern California School of Cinema-Television where he majored in screenwriting and directing before combining his two passions - technology and entertainment - in the interactive entertainment industry.
