About Philippe Corrot
Philippe Corrot is a French entrepreneur and co-founder and co-CEO of Mirakl, a marketplace software company. According to his conference bio, he launched his first company at 20 and started and sold two digital businesses between 1997 and 2005. Profiles list KEYRUS, a web agency, and MAYREV, a fashion and accessories brand, among his earlier companies.
In 2005 he and Adrien Nussenbaum launched Splitgames, a video-game trading marketplace. Fnac acquired it in 2008, and the pair ran the Fnac.com Marketplace until 2012. That year they left Fnac to found Mirakl. His conference bio says Mirakl was valued at over $3.5 billion in 2021.
PitchBook lists him as an individual angel investor with 9 recorded investments, 6 portfolio companies and 3 exits. Tracxn and Crunchbase give different counts, which probably reflects different data coverage.

Press coverage says the round was backed by a16z Scout, Drysdale, Motier Ventures and Better Angle. Industry angels included Rémi Lemonnier of Scibids, Arthur Querou of Vibe.co, Thomas Zaepffel of Adot and Corrot. PitchBook also lists Neuralk-AI (February 2025), but we found no public description of his role in it.
