French startup Altrove is teaching machines to create "recipes" for the next generation of critical materials – and just landed fresh funding to scale.
Altrove has raised $10m in a seed round led by Alven, with participation from Contrarian Ventures, Bpifrance (via its Digital Venture fund) and Emblem.
The round brings Altrove’s total funding to approximately $14m, following a €3.7m pre-seed in July 2024. The startup's existing backers include startup incubator Entrepreneurs First, and notable angels such as Hugging Face co-founder and CTO Julien Chaumond and Thomas Plantenga, founder and CEO of Vinted.
