Grenoble Angels

Grenoble, Isère, France

Grenoble Angels is the Isère association of business angels, founded in2005 and affiliated with the national France Angels federation. Its own legal notice identifies SIREN492569371 and headquarters at5–7PlaceRobertSchuman,Grenoble. It is a nonprofit member-investor network, rather than a verified conventional pooled-LP venture manager. Members provide private capital, operating expertise and business connections to innovative early-stage companies. The own FAQ explicitly says members decide their individual investments and subscribe directly; typical ticket ranges and network deployment aggregates are not association balance-sheet cash or fund closings. Current primary sources identify president PhilippeRase, re-elected for2026–2028, and a2025 operational team comprising Anne-SophieVernay, TanguyBattistella and RyanAtie. GrenobleINP’s updatedJune2026 governance corroborates Anne-Sophie’s director role. The latest accessible own governance report explicitly labels its roster2024/2025, while ownAugust2026 andMay2026 report posts have missing report links. Accordingly,22 additional governance and operational affiliations are documented with dated labels rather than asserted wholesale as current2026staff; former general delegate JonathanCollomb is qualified as replaced after the2024 issuer announcement. AlexandreConroy is separately named by HuntX as a2024 network business angel evaluating the neurotechnology company, without an inferred personal check. The full available named profile comprises27 unique people and roles, with26 authentic source-bound portraits and one unpublished-portrait gap. Deep-technology relevance is explicit: half the2025 funded startups are described by the federation as deeptech, alongside medtech and innovative software. Members invested more than EUR1M in20companies in2025 and EUR3M over2023–2025; these are network activity aggregates, not new funds. No verified external-LP fund close is published. GrenobleAngelsParticipations2SAS is a separately registered vehicle; its membership, assets and subscribing role in any specific issuer round require deal-specific proof and are not silently substituted for the association. HuntX’s September2024 EUR1.7M financing names the network alongside other angel networks and patient families. The institutional relationship represents member-network backing, with exact underlying subscribers, network allocation and association treasury participation unpublished.
