Funded Startups in Grenoble
Across the 21 most recent disclosed rounds in Grenoble, the largest disclosed amount is Verkor’s $1.4B (2024-05-24).
Across the 21 most recent disclosed rounds in Grenoble, the largest disclosed amount is Verkor’s $1.4B (2024-05-24). That figure dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds visible here—Diabeloop at $75M (2022-06-02) and Scintil Photonics at $58M (2025-09-14)—while the majority of other disclosed entries sit well below $50M (for example, UroMems $47M on 2024-06-25 and BeFC Bioenzymatic Fuel Cells $17M on 2023-06-08). Sector clustering is also visible: Artificial Intelligence appears 2 times (TiHive Technologies, 2025-10-05; GreenWaves Technologies, 2023-02-03), while Hardware appears in 4 entries (Scintil Photonics, 2025-09-14; Microoled, 2024-11-21; BeFC Bioenzymatic Fuel Cells, 2023-06-08; Aledia, 2022-05-10). Stage/classification patterns show uncertainty and early-stage funding: 5 of 21 rounds show “Series Unknown” and 1 is “undisclosed,” alongside multiple Seed/Series A/Series B/C rounds.
Temporally, the disclosed rounds span 2020-07-03 (Anya) through 2025-10-05 (TiHive Technologies). Most recently dated entries concentrate in late 2025 and 2024: examples include Scintil Photonics ($58M) on 2025-09-14, TiHive Technologies ($9M) on 2025-10-05, and several 2024 rounds such as UroMems ($47M) on 2024-06-25, Verkor ($1.4B) on 2024-05-24, and Survoltage ($2M) on 2024-10-17. Hardware and energy-related deals show up repeatedly in the 2022–2025 window, with Energy appearing in 3 entries (STELLARIA $27M on 2025-07-17; Survoltage $2M on 2024-10-17; Verkor categorized as Consumer Electronics but stands out on size in 2024).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest recent disclosed round in this Grenoble list, and how does it compare to other disclosed amounts shown?
Verkor’s $1.4B round on 2024-05-24 is an extreme outlier; the next-largest disclosed rounds visible here are Diabeloop at $75M on 2022-06-02 and Scintil Photonics at $58M on 2025-09-14. Most other disclosed amounts fall well below $50M, including UroMems at $47M (2024-06-25) and GreenWaves Technologies at $22M (2023-02-03).
How concentrated are the rounds by date within the 21-row window?
The list runs from 2020-07-03 (Anya, $100K) through 2025-10-05 (TiHive Technologies, $9M). In the most recent period, multiple rounds cluster in late 2024 and 2025—for example, Verkor ($1.4B) on 2024-05-24, UroMems ($47M) on 2024-06-25, and Survoltage ($2M) on 2024-10-17, followed by Scintil Photonics ($58M) on 2025-09-14 and TiHive Technologies ($9M) on 2025-10-05.
Which stage or classification patterns dominate, given the “Series Unknown” and “undisclosed” rows?
Uncertainty is material: 5 of 21 rows are labeled “Series Unknown” (including TiHive Technologies $9M on 2025-10-05 and Upmem $4M on 2023-09-12), and 1 row is “undisclosed” (Microoled, 2024-11-21). The remainder includes multiple defined stages such as Seed (STELLARIA $27M on 2025-07-17; Survoltage $2M on 2024-10-17) and Series C (UroMems $47M on 2024-06-25; Diabeloop $75M on 2022-06-02).
Are any sectors over-represented in this Grenoble set, or do they appear scattered?
Hardware shows up more than once and reaches 4 entries: Scintil Photonics (2025-09-14, $58M), Microoled (2024-11-21, undisclosed), Aledia (2022-05-10, $30M), and GRAPHEAL (2021-02-10, $2M). By contrast, Artificial Intelligence appears twice (TiHive Technologies $9M on 2025-10-05 and GreenWaves Technologies $22M on 2023-02-03), and Energy appears 3 times (STELLARIA $27M on 2025-07-17; Survoltage $2M on 2024-10-17).
Are there low-end outliers in disclosed amounts, and where do they sit relative to the smallest disclosed round?
The smallest disclosed amount in the visible data is Anya at $100K on 2020-07-03. That low-end is sharply separated from other small-but-not-minimum disclosed figures such as igonogo at $380K (2023-04-02) and CountAct at $1M (2025-02-06), while several disclosed rounds cluster in the $1M–$30M range (Survoltage $2M in 2024; GRAPHEAL $2M in 2021; STELLARIA $27M in 2025).
