Pattern
France produces exceptional technical depth in B2B and industrial verticals. GTM and capital markets exposure frequently lag, which keeps valuations disciplined relative to intrinsic capability.
Why it matters for investors
US capital can fund commercial acceleration and selective US listing or strategic exit options — but only where IP, contracts, and regulatory exposure are diligenced with local rigor. The arbitrage is real; the execution bar is high.
Our filter
We prioritise situations where technical moat is demonstrable, revenue is not purely grant-dependent, and a credible path exists to double-digit growth without destroying unit economics.
