Exclusive-Nvidia in talks to invest in Anthropic’s mega IPO, sources say
September 11th saw Anthropic exploring potential discussions with Nvidia to establish the AI firm as an anchor investor in what could be the largest IPO in history. Sources suggest Anthropic aims to raise up to $100 billion, potentially valuing the startup at around $2 trillion. Nvidia is reportedly considering a $10 billion stake in the IPO.
The potential investment is under review and may change, according to the sources. If finalized, Nvidia's participation could provide Anthropic with an early strategic partner for the massive offering, while strengthening ties between the chipmaker and one of its key customers. This development could bolster investor confidence for the IPO, which is anticipated to test public-market appetite for the lofty valuations and capital demands of leading AI companies.
Anthropic has not commented on the matter. Nvidia has not yet responded to inquiries about the potential investment.
