French Startup Funding: Latest Rounds, Deals & Data

French Startup Funding

A French Tech Journal Project

This page tracks every funding round raised by French startups that The French Tech Journal can verify, from pre-seed checks to growth rounds worth hundreds of millions of euros. It is updated continuously from France Navigator, our database of the French tech ecosystem, and it is the same data behind our weekly French Tech Funding Wire and our quarterly funding reports.

We count companies headquartered in France, plus French-founded startups based abroad, which are labelled as such. Amounts are shown in euros. Rounds only appear once they have been publicly announced; embargoed deals are added on publication. Below you will find this year's totals, the latest rounds, the biggest deals of the year and a quarter-by-quarter breakdown, with links to our reporting on each.

Methodology

What we count. Equity, convertible and venture debt rounds announced by startups headquartered in France, and by French-founded startups headquartered elsewhere (flagged "French-founded"). Grants and public subsidies are included only when announced as part of a round.

Dates. Rounds are dated by public announcement, not by when the deal closed or when we added it to the database.

Amounts and currencies. Amounts raised in other currencies are converted to euros at the rate on the announcement date. The original currency is kept in France Navigator. Totals only include rounds with a disclosed amount; rounds with no public figure are listed as "Undisclosed" and counted in the number of rounds, not in capital raised.

Investors. Lead investors are shown in bold where the company or investors identified one. Long investor lists are shortened on this page.

Corrections. Spotted a missing round or an error? Email chris@frenchtechjournal.com and we will update the data, usually within a working day.
