Nvidia in talks to invest in Anthropic’s mega IPO
The proposed listing could test investor appetite for frontier AI companies as Anthropic expands computing capacity and strengthens ties with major technology firms.
Anthropic is in confidential discussions to secure Nvidia's participation as an anchor investor in its anticipated IPO, which could be the largest ever, according to two sources familiar with the matter. The AI startup is aiming to raise up to $100 billion, potentially valuing Anthropic at around $2 trillion. Nvidia is considering contributing up to $10 billion to the IPO, one source added.
While the plans are still under discussion and could change, the involvement of Nvidia, a major customer of Anthropic, could bolster investor confidence and strengthen ties between the chipmaker and the AI lab. Anchor investors typically commit to buying a predetermined portion of an IPO before it is widely marketed, offering early validation of the shares.
