For the first time this year, the French Maritime Cluster unveiled the French Blue Index Tech of the best startups in the Maritime sector, under the patronage of the State Secretariat for the Sea and with the support of Indosuez Wealth Management. Selected by a jury of experts from the innovation and maritime sectors, the 35 startups which make up this new index represent the best of 1,200 startups focused on maritime in France. The selection was presented at the French National Maritime Museum in Paris, during an event bringing together representatives of the selected startups and numerous investors, and in the presence of Herve Berville, Secretary of State for the Sea. ![French Blue Tech Index soiree](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/blog/FBT-soiree.width-500.png?width=500&height=260&name=FBT-soiree.width-500.png) Alex Caizergues, President and co-founder of Syroco, declared: "We are proud to have been selected for this index which highlights the most promising and successful startups in the field. This selection validates elements such as Syroco's innovative character, growth potential, economic viability, but also [our impact on the environment](https://www.syro.co/en/news/carbon-free-transport-our-challenge-globally/)." Syroco, a Climate Tech startup, supports the energy transition of maritime transport, by optimising the energy efficiency of ships during voyages, reducing fuel consumption and emissions by 10% or more. Leveraging accurate weather and sea data, [Syroco EfficientShip](https://www.syro.co/en/syroco-live/) uses a [digital twin](https://www.syro.co/en/digital-twin/) of the vessel, driven by [data and artificial intelligence](https://www.syro.co/en/news/physics-based-data-augmented-digital-twins/), to calculate optimised routing at any time in order to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. The [route chosen by the crew](https://www.syro.co/en/news/next-generation-routing-fuel-and-carbon-reduction/) is displayed on the bridge through the intuitive and user-friendly interface of the on-board application which also displays [en-route weather conditions](https://www.syro.co/en/news/multi-objective-weather-routing/) as well as real-time voyage optimisation recommendations. ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fsyro.co%2Fnews%2Fclimate-tech-startup-syroco-selected-french-blue-tech-index](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fsyro.co%2Fnews%2Fclimate-tech-startup-syroco-selected-french-blue-tech-index) ## Keep reading ### [![](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Design%20sans%20titre%20(8).png?width=2048&height=1076&name=Design%20sans%20titre%20(8).png) How OnWatch helped a crew choose the safer route, not just the shortest one ?](https://syro.co/news/how-onwatch-helped-a-crew-choose-the-safer-route-not-just-the-shortest-one) ### [![](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/1786024001699.jpeg?width=1200&height=1200&name=1786024001699.jpeg) How we cut a ship's fuel by 12.4% - without changing distance or losing time](https://syro.co/news/how-we-cut-a-ships-fuel-by-12.4-without-changing-distance-or-losing-time) --- [![logo\_syroco\_white\_orange](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/logo_syroco_white_orange.png?width=141&height=31&name=logo_syroco_white_orange.png "logo_syroco_white_orange")](https://syro.co/news/https/syro.co) Driving the energy transition of maritime - [PLATFORM](https://syro.co) - [Syroco Live](https://syro.co/syroco-live) - [Syroco Onwatch](https://syro.co/syroco-onwatch) - [Key Benefits](https://syro.co/benefits) - [Results](https://syro.co/results) - [The Technology](https://syro.co/technology) - [COMPANY](https://syro.co/company) - [Careers](https://syro.co/company#careers) - [Contact](https://syro.co/contact-us#contact) --- [Privacy Policy](https://syro.co/privacy) · [Content Usage Policy](https://syro.co/content-usage-policy) · © 2026 Syroco, all rights reserved. ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Syroco", "url" : "https://syro.co/news/author/syroco" }, "dateModified" : "2026-03-24T09:47:22.091Z", "datePublished" : "2023-12-19T09:00:00.000Z", "headline" : "Climate Tech Startup Syroco Selected for the French Blue Tech Index | Syroco", "image" : [ "https://syro.co/hubfs/blog/FBT-index.original.png" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://syro.co/news/climate-tech-startup-syroco-selected-french-blue-tech-index", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://syro.co/hubfs/logo_syroco_transparent-1.png" }, "name" : "Syroco" } } ```
