Its peak financing was a $33 million (about 31 million euro) Series B led by Mirova in December 2022. The registry records it at commercial maturity with an active lifecycle, while flagging a significant 2025 restructuring: Naio entered French judicial recovery in June 2025 and was relaunched under new ownership and leadership, with CEO Antoine Monville, in late October and November 2025, backed by a roughly 6.4 million euro financing plan that included a Mirova reinvestment of about 3.5 million euro plus support from Bpifrance and the Occitanie region. Revenue had declined from about 3.96 million euro in 2021 to about 2.4 million euro in 2024.
