Firecell raises €7.9M Series A round

18 February 2026· Nice, France· infrastructure, manufacturing, ai, industrial_software, b2b, b2g, software_hardware

The funding supports the merger with Accelleran to create a complete, full-stack private 5G platform for industrial autonomy, while doubling the company's engineering and commercial footprint across Europe

Industrial operations are deploying robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles at scale, and they need predictable connectivity, not a patchwork of vendors

Claude Seyrat, CEO

As private 5G projects evolve toward multi-site deployments – smaller in scope but growing in number – system integrators need a single reference solution they can standardise on. This merger gives them exactly that: one efficient, hardware-agnostic offering so they can focus on delivering high-value applications and ROI to their customers, not on integration work.
