Founded 18 months ago in Aix-en-Provence, SunLib installs rooftop solar panels for homeowners without requiring any upfront payment; customers instead pay a monthly subscription of roughly €50 over 10-25 years. The company operates a third-party investment model, owning and financing the equipment while leveraging a vetted network of 300 independent installers. It has already converted about 500 residential and a few public-sector clients and plans to add 4,000–6,000 more this year using newly raised capital. SunLib targets 100,000 subscribers, representing 1.5 GWp of capacity, by 2030—roughly equivalent to a small nuclear reactor. The addressable French self-consumption market is expanding rapidly, with installations up 54 % year-over-year, providing tailwinds for SunLib’s growth. Financially, the company has secured €3.2 million from business angels earlier in 2024 and now adds a €25 million institutional round, while it is also negotiating additional equity and bank debt with Bpifrance, Cepac and Société Générale. Founder and president Arnaud Langlois retains majority ownership following the latest raise.

Guyot Énergies is the energy-transition subsidiary of the Finistère-based Guyot group, which employs 600 people and generates €300 million in revenue from waste collection and recovery activities. The unit designs, installs and operates industrial boilers that run on low-carbon biomass or recovered waste, turning non-recyclable local refuse into process heat for factories. Its first biomass boiler began supplying the Laïta dairy in Créhen in April, and a second plant is under construction in Brest for Bunge. Management plans to double the number of such energy-production infrastructures by 2030, with growth focused on France and, following two recent site acquisitions, Spain. Future development includes adding biogenic CO₂ capture on its boilers to manufacture renewable fuels, completing a circular-economy loop. By pairing waste management with on-site energy generation, the company aims to help industry meet France’s 2050 carbon-neutrality target while creating local jobs.

Founded in 2020, Kéria offers an AI-powered platform that ingests mortgage-application documents via optical character recognition and instantly evaluates an applicant’s creditworthiness. The tool automates document analysis, pre-qualification, and final decisioning, aiming to replace the manual, paper-heavy workflows still common in mortgage lending. Today the company processes roughly 600 loan files each month, giving lenders faster turnaround times and consumers quicker answers. Kéria’s business model centers on selling this decision-as-a-service technology to banks and lenders that want to digitize underwriting. With fresh capital, management intends to scale the number of applications processed and further enhance its AI models. The firm is led by CEO and co-founder Emilie de Marne and is headquartered in Bordeaux, France. Prior to the current seed round, no previous financing details were disclosed.

DESKi develops HeartFocus, an AI-driven cardiac exam software that provides real-time guidance so healthcare professionals with minimal training can perform diagnostic-quality echocardiography. HeartFocus leverages proprietary algorithms trained on over 10 million data points and was validated through clinical trials showing first-time users can capture diagnostic-quality scans. The software recently received FDA clearance and a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) to simplify future updates and expansion. DESKi says the product runs on any device and is partnered with several U.S. and European app platforms and SDK providers to reach healthcare providers globally. The company plans a U.S. and global market launch to expand access to early heart disease detection beyond hospitals into primary care and resource-limited settings. The announced $6 million seed financing will support those commercialization and scale-up efforts.

Nova Carbon builds a technology to enable recycling and repurposing of end-of-life carbon fibre products and industrial production scraps. The startup aims to transition its innovation from a laboratory phase into a pre-industrial study phase to create high-performance Nova Carbon® materials for industrial players. It targets halving the volume of non-recycled carbon fibre waste in France and Europe within ten years and emphasizes reducing the carbon footprint. The technology was developed from French academic research at the University of Bordeaux and is being advanced through an exclusive technology transfer managed by SATT Aquitaine, which oversees the associated intellectual property. Founder and CEO Hugo Cartron has highlighted a favourable regulatory context and the need for recycling and environmental preservation. The company raised capital to support this transition and scale development efforts.
