NP Company builds transformer-based foundational physics models pre-trained on industrial physics data to deliver fast, high-fidelity simulations across sectors such as aerospace, defence, energy, electronics, data centre, and automotive. Its models aim to produce results in seconds versus days or weeks for traditional simulation tools, and the company reports speed improvements of up to 1,000× on industrial benchmarks. The founders, Emmanuel Menier (CEO) and Matthieu Nastorg (CTO), are PhD researchers from Paris-Saclay University and the company emerged from Inria research. NP Co. emphasizes that its pre-trained models can provide value immediately upon deployment without extensive customer-specific training. The company plans to scale its research team and further develop larger-scale assembly simulations, with longer-term goals of automated design systems and real-time operational simulators. Financially, NP Co. has secured €6 million in a pre-seed round led by Partech with participation from a family office and angel investors.
