Introduction
Dare AI is France’s ambitious new government plan to help businesses integrate artificial intelligence into their daily operations. With €10 billion in funding over the next five years and led by Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Affairs Clara Chappaz in partnership with Bpifrance , this initiative offers training, expert support, and financing solutions accessible to businesses of all sizes.
Adopting AI is no longer just for tech giants. With Dare AI , even small and medium-sized businesses can access the tools they need to stay competitive in an AI-driven economy. Concrete solutions like Callifly are already demonstrating how this transformation can become a reality.
What is the Dare AI Plan?
Dare AI is a national strategy aimed at encouraging businesses—particularly SMEs and mid-cap companies —to take the leap toward AI adoption.

- 5,000 AI Diagnostics : Government-funded assessments to identify the best AI opportunities in each company.
- AI Project Financing : State-guaranteed loans to make ambitious projects more accessible.
- Acceleration Program for 100 High Potential Companies : 18 months of training, mentoring and peer collaboration.
- Call for AI Pioneer Projects : targeted funding for major innovations in health, the environment or security.
