Abstract: In France, public aid for financing research and innovation has multiplied since the beginning of the 2000s. With the advent of the "research tax credit", an innovation financing consulting industry has gradually developed. This niche of the business consulting sector has been little studied, so that the effects of digital transformation on the traditional business model of firms in the sector remain, to this day, largely unknown. This article aims to fill this gap based on a qualitative exploratory study of 16 players in the sector in France. Our results highlight three ways in which the business models of innovation financing consultancies have changed as a result of digitalisation. Finally, we discuss the similarities and differences with the results of similar studies conducted in the general consulting industry.
