FDTour
Since 2017, at France Digitale we’ve decided to go meet startups all across France and create a bespoke event for entrepreneurs.
On the agenda: skill-building, peer exchanges, qualified meetings with investors & support partners, and of course networking with all ecosystem players.
What is France Digitale’s FDTour?
While half of France’s startups are created outside of Paris, 80% of investments are concentrated in the capital. That’s why France Digitale launched the FDTour: a series of events where we take investors all around France to meet the rising stars of tomorrow. And boom, it’s the perfect opportunity for great networking and securing funding!
Each FDTour stop is designed as a hands-on, business-oriented day: helping entrepreneurs structure their growth, gain visibility, and make the right connections at the right time.
OK, but what does it actually look like?
An FDTour is a day focused on connection with:
-
Morning workshops and experience-sharing to build skills and structure your funding from A to Z: better understand fundraising, prepare each step from investor search to exit, and address key issues like customer acquisition.
-
A networking lunch to connect the ecosystem: entrepreneurs, investors, support partners, public actors. The perfect moment to spark meetings that matter — introductions, deals… or the next big step.
-
An afternoon dedicated to speed meetings to make potentially game-changing connections: one-on-one exchanges with investors, support organizations, institutional and local actors. 💡 This afternoon is reserved for France Digitale members — click here to join us.
And what about destinations in 2026?
