giftdetect· the right gift in minutesMirakl is reshuffling its leadership. The French commerce software company announced on 10 November that Steve Tzikakis, former CEO of Sitecore, will serve as co-CEO alongside Philippe Corrot. Cofounder Adrien Nussenbaum, who stepped back from executive duties earlier this year, becomes chair of the board.
Who runs what
Tzikakis takes over the areas previously led by Nussenbaum: marketing, sales, finance, partnerships and human resources. According to the company, he will report to Corrot, who keeps strategy, product, technology and customer relations, as well as oversight of Mirakl Connect and Mirakl Ads.
The setup keeps a cofounder in charge of strategy and technology while bringing in an executive experienced in selling software to large enterprises. Before Sitecore, Tzikakis spent thirteen years at SAP, where he presided over the EMEA South region. "This new organisation lets us combine our product and technology vision with Steve's commercial and operational experience," Corrot said.
A broader product range
The appointment comes as Mirakl expands beyond its historic marketplace software. It is developing multichannel selling with Connect, retail media with Ads and agentic commerce infrastructure with Nexus. On 9 November it also unveiled a new identity and a positioning as the "operating system for intelligent commerce".
For 2025, Mirakl reported 218 million dollars in annual recurring revenue, up 23%, and said it reached group-level profitability for the full year. Connect accounted for 11.7 million dollars of ARR in less than a year, which shows that the contribution of the newer products remains uneven.
Nussenbaum remains a significant shareholder. The chair role lets him stay involved strategically while devoting more time to philanthropy and film production, the company said. Founded in 2012 by Corrot and Nussenbaum, Mirakl has headquarters in Paris and Boston and says its ecosystem includes more than 450 marketplaces and 100,000 third-party sellers.
