Welcome back home, @Gorintic and @jcsamuelian! This is where it all started for @avec_alan. Your old offices are still here and since then, dozens of startups have worked in the exact same spot. A good reminder that the best success stories often start in the same place 😌

You raised. Now what? Yesterday, @Snowflake, @awscloud, @eurazeo and @GitGuardian hosted a workshop for our F/ai founders to answer exactly that question. It was just practical stuff, no fluff.

ARO, a STATION F startup, has been acquired by @avec_alan, our health unicorn!! 🔥 That's the strength of our community. And this kind of news never gets old. Big congrats to the founders, Gaspard Hauet, Charles Géry & the whole ARO team. The next chapter starts at Alan 🚀

The 2026 Female Innovation Index is out. And we're a proud partner! 🙌 The numbers tell a real story: → €7.5B raised by female entrepreneurs in Europe in 2025 – the highest level of VC funding in three years → 22% of that went to AI companies → Round sizes up 12% year-on-year → 29 female-founded unicorns in Europe → 124 M&A exits for female-founded startups Our Director @roxannevarza participated in the Index – alongside several STATION F female founders: Erica Beavers (Alpic), Adele James (Phagos), and Dali Rashid (Genomines). Proud to be part of this. The work isn't done but these numbers show we're moving in the right direction. Full study and data here: femaleinnovationindex.com

Happy birthday, @avec_alan ! From a campus desk to one of Europe’s most ambitious health insurers: over the past decade, you’ve shown that the industry can be reimagined. Here’s to 10 more! 🎉

Huge congrats to Topograph for closing a €2M seed round – led by @seedcamp with participation of @DrysdaleVC, @kimaventures, @motierventures and Better Angle! Global financial data is fragmented and hard to verify. Topograph is fixing that. Excited to see what you continue to build, Pierre-Henri Janssens, Hugo Dellinger, Emmanuel Scharff! Proud to have you on campus as part of our first F/ai batch! 🎉

No “right” CV, but you want to be a founder? Fighters Program powered by @tiktok_us is for you. 500+ founders last batch. We don't punch our founders – just the norms! Applications open 👇 form.fillout.com/t/198QRiJFRReu

The @joinstationf Startup Gremlins have ended our long national nightmare and FINALLY revealed the F/AI spring batch: 👉 20 AI startups 🥣 80% cereal founders 🥸 infrastructure, agents, risk & compliance, marketing & sales, lions & tigers & bears, oh my. frenchtechjournal.com/station-fs-f-a…

Last week, Arnaud Weiss and Arthur Coudouy, cofounders of Sillage (F/ai – Future 40), did something pretty bold – they flew straight to @salesforce's HQ in Dublin to turn prospecting into a competition. 50+ sales reps. The result? Reps booked a multiple of their usual meetings. We love this about our F/ai founders. They show up, even when the customer has 70K+ employees.
