Qarnot: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

A French startup founded in 2010, Qarnot offers its customers an innovative way to significantly minimise the carbon footprint associated with their digital activities. Our solution focuses on a computational power infrastructure spread in buildings (offices, residences, public facilities, factories, and warehouses), where enormous volumes of heat produced by IT servers may be locally and immediately valued, as opposed to concentrating servers in datacenters. Compared to the conventional data centre technique, this alternative method significantly reduces the cost, risk, and carbon footprint of our clients' digital infrastructure, especially when it comes to high performance computing (HPC) issues.

About FundedIQ's Qarnot Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Qarnot is left off this page rather than filled in.
