Alven Capital has led a €7m round for Genymobile, a French start-up offering enterprise tools for the Android operating system.
The funding will enable the company to develop and bring to market its Genymaster product, which allows businesses to develop customised Android operating systems across a variety of devices.
BPI France also took part in the round for Paris-headquartered Genymobile, which has an additional office in Redwood City, near Palo Alto.
The deal comes shortly after Alven invested in VideoStitch, another Parisian start-up with offices in the San Francisco Bay area.
