Lancey Energy Storage, which was founded in 2016 and which moved to MINATEC in 2017, raised €8 million this summer. The Grenoble-based startup is developing a smart electric radiator with an integrated storage battery. The product will target the residential and commercial markets. Its lithium-ion battery and electronic regulation system can effectively store the energy […] >>

Scintil Photonics was founded in 2018 and won the French national i-Lab innovation competition that same year. This year, the Grenoble-based startup is leveling up with a €4 million fundraising round. The influx of funds will push the company from four to thirteen employees by mid-2020 and support the research it is doing under a […] >>

Remedee, a Grenoble-based startup, is developing a pain management solution based on stimulating the secretion of pain-relieving endorphins. The company recently announced that it had completed a second round of fundraising, bringing in €8.5 million*.

A team of researchers from Grenoble (IRIG, Leti, and CNRS) made headlines in 2016 with the world’s first FDSOI qubit device—based on holes rather than electrons—made on a 300 mm CMOS fab line. Now they can read the state of the qubit, too. The researchers used a screen-grid reflectometry method, applying microwave signals to the […] >>
