The wire — 11 October 2026
Sunday is a quiet desk. A full sweep of both beats — France and the rest of Europe — found nothing announced on 11 October 2026. European VC press offices don't work weekends.
The week was not quiet: 18 rounds across 6 countries, approximately €245 million, published across Thursday's 13-round sweep and Saturday's five-round catch-up. The week's genuine thread — professional automation as the dominant investment theme, health infrastructure as the broadest sector — runs in the weekly analysis piece alongside this brief.
Next edition: Monday 12 October 2026.
