La French Tech is the brand deployed by the French government to represent the ecosystem of 25,000 French start-ups and all the players that revolve around them (investment funds, associations, public bodies, etc.), supported by the French Tech Mission (an administration attached to the Direction Générale des Entreprises, within the Ministry of the Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty).

Its mission is to support the development of the French Tech ecosystem, the French movement of innovative technology start-ups, in line with government priorities and in the image and service of the French people. To do this, it brings this ecosystem together alongside the French Tech Capitals and Communities (a network of private associations accredited by the French Tech Mission) and the network of French Tech Correspondents (more than 60 partner administrations and public services).

Creative by nature, industrial by tradition, strongly innovative, France invents the industry of tomorrow and inspires the future. Its industry stands out through strong abilities, techniques and a unique savoir-faire. La French Fab is the new inspiration for industry.

La French Fab supports a more digitized and respectful industrial era, deeply committed to designing disruptive and innovative industrial processes, always seeking to preserve an equal balance between working conditions and well-being. Passionate about energy efficiency and limiting the impact on the environment, France is at the cutting-edge of the digital transition, leading the next eco-industrial revolution, the “solutions’ revolution”.

La French Fab also aims at sharing responsible good practices and industrial savoir-faire to connect talented people for more inclusive and competitive jobs in a protected environment. Renowned for its excellence, and with a strong avant-garde spirit, French manufacturing is at the forefront of the factory of the future.

Launched in 2017 by Bruno Le Maire, La French Fab brings together, under one common banner, the industrial ecosystem across France. Indeed, La French Fab is the new name of the French industry. And it has the highest ambitions! Collectively supported by the Alliance Industrie du Futur, Bpifrance, Business France, France Industrie, the Direction Générale des Entreprises and France’s regions, La French Fab highlights the French manufacturing expertise and provides a vision to help revive and transform the industrial base, by connecting people, generations and territories, by implementing the use of digital and innovative solutions to sustain concrete answers to today’s challenges, in France and abroad.
