The wire — 2 October 2026
Friday is not structurally quiet the way weekends are — European press teams issue announcements on Fridays, and the trackers run normally. The constraint this morning is timing: the routine publishes at 07:00 Paris, and European startup press releases typically land between 08:00 and 12:00. A full sweep of both beats — France and rest-of-Europe — at this hour returned nothing announced on 2 October.
Thursday's wire was active: seven rounds across six countries, led by Restate's €18.5M Series A out of Berlin. Any rounds that close or publish this morning will appear in Monday's edition.
Next edition: Monday 5 October 2026.
The wire opens with our first edition. Subscribe to get it the morning it runs.
