Its 23 locations in France, its team of 50 investors with a strong entrepreneurial culture, and its long-term investment vision make it a locally-based partner, serving companies and regions.

• It covers all sectors, with the exception of real estate development, banking, and insurance.

• It funds development projects (strengthening of the financial structure, acceleration of internal and external growth, expansion abroad) and the transfer (sale, restructuring of capital) of French companies.

• It supports its investments by making its network and expertise available to the company, in multiple areas (management tools, strategic discussions, operating performance, exports, etc.).

• If its directors prefer, it promotes networking between companies in its portfolio (more than 400 companies) and with other companies in which Bpifrance invests.

Combined with various existing themed funds under Growth Capital management, including the Sector Investment Fund (SIF) and the Tourism Investment Fund (TIF), the France Region Investment fund groups small- and medium-sized companies based on a common goal: to develop, consolidate, and transfer growing SMEs and ISEs in France.

Together, these funds use multi-specialised, strongly industrial positioning to strengthen the skills and expertise of the French economy. They have already benefited more than 1,000 SMEs and ISEs through equity investments.
