Eric Thomas,
Founder & Chief Executive Officer
As L-Soft's CEO, Eric Thomas has successfully expanded the company's product and service offerings well beyond the original LISTSERV® product. Under his leadership, the company today has more than 3,700 customers worldwide – including 23 of the Fortune 100 – and continues to break records, delivering more than 30 million messages per day to more than 130 million list subscriptions.
In 1986, Eric created L-Soft's flagship product, LISTSERV, the first email list manager and the current de facto standard for the administration of email lists. Eight years later Eric founded L-Soft – now the global provider of software and outsourcing services for email list management, discussion groups, newsletters and direct email marketing campaigns.
A citizen of both Panama and France, Eric began his career working for CERN in Geneva and in 1990 moved to Stockholm where he helped SUNET (Swedish University Network) launch the Internet in Sweden. Prior to that, he studied engineering in Paris. Eric has also worked in Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. He speaks French, Spanish, Swedish, Italian and some Russian. |
