Paris-based Lupin Dental raised a 15 million euro Series A around Aug 27-28, 2026, led by Fynveur (10 million euro) with existing shareholders, private investors and Bpifrance loan support, to develop dental robotics. It is one of several late-August European health and hardware rounds pairing VC equity with state-bank financing.
