Every year, hundreds of (very) early-stage startups choose to participate in a startup program F station, an innovative campus based in Paris. Station F has shared a list of the 40 most promising startups as part of the Future 40 selection.
Some of them participate in Station F’s own programs, such as the Fighters program for entrepreneurs from disadvantaged backgrounds and the FemTech program for startups working specifically on female health, women’s sexual health, and more.
Others join Station F through external companies that have signed partnerships with Station F to run their own mini-incubator within the startup campus. These partners include Microsoft, Binance, LVMH, and the recently announced AI program with Meta and Hugging Face.
It’s also worth noting that last year, Station F overhauled its flagship internal program – the Founders Program – to turn it into a kind of startup accelerator. In exchange for a 1% equity stake, startups are invited to workshops and classes to quickly iterate on their projects. There are some demos and some one-off opportunities with advisors.
“First, we want to stay friendly with the founders. Some people told us it’s not a lot, others said it’s a lot,” Roxanne Varza, director of Station F, told me at the time of the change. “But Station F is not here to get 50% of the money.” Stocks. “We just want to show that we are in the game and that we will stay involved,” she added.
That’s why this year’s Future 40 list is more interesting than usual as some of them are technically powered by Station F itself. I’ll share the full list of startups at the bottom of this article, but I wanted to highlight some interesting ones first.
