Additional funding brings recent innovation investments up to €500 million
The French government has said it will support a variety of projects worth €340 million aimed at encouraging the creation of startups using technology that is heavily reliant on scientific advances, or ‘deeptech’.
These investments, combined with the announcement in December 2022 of €160m in funding for regional innovation centres which also aim to boost tech transfer and startup creation, mean the government has invested €500m over recent months on projects to accelerate innovation, it said in a statement.
