Vetopia arrives in France with new subsidiary, VETERAE

November 2025

A local group backed by a European collective

Our expansion through the continent continues with the founding of VETERAE, a completely new subsidiary of the Vetopia group build on its core principles and beliefs.

Based in Paris, VETERAE will be led by president, Nicolas Lemarchand, alongside veterinary doctors, Vincent Dattée (Managing Director) and Sophie Wilford, (Director of Training and Talent Development).

A truly French offering

VETERAE follows the guiding principle, “Your identity inspires ours”, and aims to bring a unique offering to clinic owners in France.

As a local group backed by a European collective offering ‘a-la-carte’ support services and a continuous learning environment, VETERAE underpins the values of Vetopia and tailors them to the specific needs of the local market – as noted by Vincent, “Introducing a 13th veterinary group in France is a challenge. VETERAE’s value proposition aims to be modern and resolutely adapted to the French market, given its diversity and maturity.”

Our ambition is to strengthen what already makes each clinic unique while providing practical, respectful support that helps teams focus on delivering excellent care.
