Description
French startup Mistral AI, specialized in generative artificial intelligence, is preparing to move its headquarters from the 10th to the 18th arrondissement of Paris, at the beginning of 2026. To accommodate its rapid growth, the new six-story building will host up to 1,000 employees, compared with around 400 currently, as the company continues to expand and opens about 100 new positions.
This relocation aims to provide a modern, collaborative workspace with open areas, flexible meeting rooms as well as high-tech facilities to support research and development. Mistral is reinforcing its infrastructure and international reach. The move also aligns with the growing concentration of French Tech companies in northern Paris, putting forward the city's brand and position as a dynamic European tech hub.

European labour markets have recovered strongly from COVID-19. By the end of 2021, little more than 18 months after the start of the pandemic, employment rates in the EU were almost at pre-crisis levels.
