Michaelp800 10 Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Where can I find some business information about Bohemia Interactive (finances, partners, employees (number)...)? Does there exist a public "commercial register" like in Switzerland? I'm very interested. :) Edited June 28, 2013 by Michaelp800 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chortles 263 Posted June 28, 2013 My understanding is that BI is a privately owned company (source: Rock, Paper, Shotgun interview with Maruk last year) and that Maruk is CEO and co-owner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelp800 10 Posted June 28, 2013 My understanding is that BI is a privately owned company (source: Rock, Paper, Shotgun interview with Maruk last year) and that Maruk is CEO and co-owner. Yeah. I've edited my first post a bit. So u can see, what I'm really looking for. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chortles 263 Posted June 28, 2013 If it's privately owned, then you can forget about seeing finances. As far as "partners", that depends on how you define it, but ALTAR Games (UFO: Aftermath, Aftershock and Afterlight) and Black Element Software (ArmA: Queen's Gambit, Alpha Prime and Shade: Wrath of Angels) were acquired subsidiaries of BI, while Centauri Production was picked up by BI in late 2010 but is still around under its own name, seemingly most focused on Memento Mori 2. Also, the BES pages for Alpha Prime and Shade are still up. As far as employees, from that same interview Maruk mentioned "now about one hundred people on the gaming side, and about the same on the simulation side [bIS also produce military simulator training tech]" in late August 2012, though it seems to be an interviewer error of lumping BI and BISim together since they're both HQ'd in Prague despite seemingly separate personnel right down to having separate CEOs (a seemingly common error in conflating BI and BISim).

Michaelp800 10 Posted June 28, 2013 The finances... what about that. Private businesses also can divulge their finances. I don't wanna know details. Just actives and passives. A simple thing. They don't have to be ashamed about high or low values. I just wanna know the balance sheet. I wanna know that to decide how much I should donate. ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chortles 263 Posted June 28, 2013 To my knowledge there is no publicly available information about BI's finances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michaelp800 10 Posted June 28, 2013 I hope there will be. I didn't found anything neither. So I've asked here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted June 28, 2013 If it's not available then that would be the answer as to whether we wish it to be available :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
