4 deeptech start-ups awarded the PSL Tech Seed certification
4 deeptech start-ups receive the certification of the PSL Tech Seed consortium, led by ²ÝÁñÂÛ̳ and the Institut Pasteur. Joltee, Metyos, Plantibodies, and JMB SAS are granted the co-financing provided by the French Tech Seed fund.
The PSL Tech Seed program allows technology start-ups from PSL University and the Institut Pasteur, backed by one or more private investors (business angels, venture capitals, industrial partners, etc.), to the co-financing provided by Bpifrance, via the French Tech Seed fund. This program is available to all start-ups from both institutions, regardless of their disciplines and fields of application. The start-ups are granted co-financing from BpiFrance: from €50K to €250K, as convertible bonds.
