Corinne Mailles
Since January 1, 2026, Corinne Mailles has served as Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Telespazio France. This appointment marks the pinnacle of an exceptional career within the company, which she first joined in 2011 as Deputy General Manager.
Under her strategic leadership, Telespazio France has undergone a profound metamorphosis, with its business volume increasing fivefold over the past fifteen years. Corinne Mailles successfully anticipated the shifts in the space market and its digitalization to drive a structural transformation of the company. By transitioning from a historical model of pure operations ("operate") to co-development ("build and operate"), and finally toward "operations as a service", she enabled the company to establish itself as a key partner for the emerging players of the New Space industry.
Background and Expertise A graduate of ESCE and the General Management program at ESSEC, Corinne Mailles has dedicated her entire career to the space industry. Before transforming Telespazio France, she built her expertise at Alcatel and Thales Alenia Space France, where she held key positions in Sales (Telecommunications), Business Development, and Government Affairs.
