The record lists Yves Guillemot as French businessman and founder of Ubisoft.
Yves Guillemot was born at Malestroit in 1969. His recorded nationality is France.

He worked as entrepreneur.
Commercial success is easy to measure and hard to interpret; timing and market do much of the work.
Recognition followed: Knight of the Legion of Honour (2016).
