Advised by Walter Billet Avocats, Redalpine acted as co-lead investor alongside OTB Ventures in Arlequin AI’s €28 million Series A funding round.
This financing round—backed exclusively by European investors, including Bpifrance’s Defense Innovation Fund, existing investors Vsquared Ventures and 10x Founders, as well as Xavier Niel and Zebox (CMA CGM’s startup accelerator)—will enable the company to accelerate the development of a new AI architecture based on topological neural networks and to deploy its technology internationally.
Founded in Paris in 2024, Arlequin AI develops AI designed for environments where governments and companies must make high-stakes decisions based on vast, fragmented datasets, while ensuring results are backed by underlying evidence. The startup has already developed and deployed a platform capable of analyzing relationships between heterogeneous data, ranging from documents and transactions to video and operational information.
