Updated Sep 2026

There are 155 funded Biotechnology startups in France in the FundedIQ database, each with its funding rounds, amounts, investors, industries, locations and company details. This page provides an overview of the Biotechnology startup funding landscape in France, along with the 100 most recently funded Biotechnology startups in France.

The median disclosed round is $7.9M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $3.3M and $20M. Paris and Lyon hold the deepest concentrations of these companies. Biotechnology startups in France closed 90 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 43 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $1.4B in disclosed capital.

Biotechnology activity centers on early stage ventures. The concentration of Series A and Seed rounds indicates a market of emerging technologies rather than scaled enterprises. This tilt toward early funding makes Paris and Lyon primary targets for those seeking ground floor entries. Sourcing focuses on early validation and prototype development before the shift toward later stage growth.

About the FundedIQ Biotechnology startup funding data in France

FundedIQ tracks announced startup funding rounds and organises them by company, funding date, stage, amount, industry, location and investor.

Rounds whose amount was not disclosed (5 of 90 in that period) are counted as rounds but excluded from capital totals and from the median. The most recent round on record for funded Biotechnology startups in France is dated Jul 2026.

The table above shows the 100 most recently funded companies. Full funding histories, investor lists and founder contacts across the whole dataset open on a FundedIQ plan.
