Health&Tech Intelligence unveiled this morning the first study on the role of digital technology in the Medical Device sector in France. Commissioned by SNITEM, this study identifies 360 medical device companies in France with digital activities and 311 digital medical devices. The industry has seen significant acceleration since 2019, especially in telehealth and medical imaging sectors. 💡Key takeways: Challenges in data access, regulatory frameworks, and evaluation methodologies. The dynamic growth is fueled by AI, notably in medical imaging, targeting healthcare professionals. The big question: should we evaluate to better finance these solutions?

🌍 A quick flash back to France Digitale's #Impact Day yesterday afternoon at Aircall's offices ! Our Founding Partner, Thierry Vandewalle, was honored to take part in a dynamic roundtable discussion moderated by Jérôme Masurel of 50 Partners on the theme: “Quelles thèses d’investissement pour transformer la société ?” (Which investment theses can transform society?) One particular theme centered on a powerful idea: economic performance and climate adaptation can—and must—go hand in hand. Thierry highlighted that the climate adaptation solutions that we are financing at Wind aren’t just vital for the planet—they make strong business sense, too. Why? 1️⃣ The demand for solutions is urgent and growing. As the visible effects of climate change intensify, young engineers are increasingly turning their talents toward addressing these challenges. Startups are emerging to ensure essential industries, services, and infrastructure can literally weather the storm. ⚡️🏠 2️⃣ The opportunities for investors are immense. 🧳🤑 From ESG criteria to core market logic, investing in climate adaptation is no longer just about doing good—it’s about capitalizing on a necessary and profitable shift. 3️⃣ France needs more players in industrial deeptech. 🦾🤓 Wind is proud to be one of the few industrial deeptech VCs in Europe, but the magnitude of the challenge demands many more actors to enter this space and increasing public and private investing if we are to successfully built resilient infrastructures and industries while ensuring European independence and sovereignty. We were also inspired by the insights shared by fellow panelists: 👏Camille Richard (Alter Equity) and Nadia FILALI(Caisse des Dépôts) who added valuable perspectives on the growing impact landscape and underscored the importance of strong ESG practices, not just as a moral imperative but as a tool for ensuring long-term business resilience. A big thank you to France Digitale for the organisation, Jérôme, and all the panelists for such an inspiring conversation. It really is exciting to see a growing community of startups and investors committed to tackling the most pressing challenges of our time—and we’re thrilled to be part of shaping this ecosystem. 🌏 💚 Cc: 🙏 FD Stars: Laure de Clebsattel, Maurine Riou, Mathilde Dias✨

When we travel, we are responsible for the ecological footprint we leave behind. Our choices, behaviour and attitudes have an impact on the world around us. It’s common to search for hotels based on certain predilections, like having a pool or being beach front. But next time, let’s consider another type of metric - sustainability. 🍀 #GoGreenWithGoelett

A very interesting podcast (in French). Muriel Pénicaud highlights how France is a global leader in gender diversity on corporate boards, particularly among publicly traded companies. Recent data indicates that women hold about 45% of board seats across listed companies, placing France among the global leaders in gender diversity on boards. In this podcast, Muriel Pénicaud reflects on her journey and explains what posture and role women should have on boards. Some good advices!

Luko alumni raise €25m from Balderton and Ribbit Capital as B2B fintech reigns Two former Luko employees, Pauline Glikman and Joseph Assouline, have secured €25m in funding for their startup Payflows, focusing on automated financial management. Led by Balderton Capital, the Series A round saw participation from Ribbit Capital, Headline, 20VC, and Galerie Lafayette’s family office. Payflows addresses the challenge faced by CFOs who navigate multiple systems for financial management, resulting in siloed operations. Glikman emphasizes that existing software often lacks user-friendliness beyond the accounting team. They offer a solution by integrating various financial processes into one customizable platform, deployed atop existing accounting systems. This approach aims to streamline operations and enhance accessibility, offering a subscription-based model tailored to different company sizes and modules.
