France's Orange (ORA.FR) said Thursday that it has formed a partnership with Google to invest in tech startups in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

The telecommunications company said it has entered the partnership with Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOG) search giant through Orange Digital Ventures, a fund it launched in 2015 to invest in early-stage companies.

Orange and Google will jointly assess investment opportunities in fields where the telecom company already has a presence, including cybersecurity, Internet of Things, cloud computing and fintech.

Orange didn't disclose financial details.
