OpenAI estudia una ronda de financiación con una valoración de 1,2 billones de dólares antes de su OPV
La startup de Sam Altman podría aprovechar la demanda de su tecnología tras los lanzamientos de sus nuevos modelos Leer
OpenAI, the startup founded by Sam Altman, is reportedly engaging in preliminary talks with potential investors to secure another round of funding valued at $1.2 trillion prior to its initial public offering (OPV). Altman's company is seeking to capitalize on the renewed demand for its technology following the launch of its latest AI models, including GPT-5.6 in July and Astra at the beginning of the month.
These new models have driven a surge in revenue for the company, which recently experienced a relatively slow start to the year. While Anthropic, a rival, surpassed OpenAI in valuation following a $965 billion investment, OpenAI's management is keen to continue growing its user base and revenue. The company recently submitted its IPO prospectus in June but has since postponed the timing of its initial public offering.
A further round of private funding would provide existing investors, such as SoftBank and Thrive Capital, an opportunity to increase their stake in the company, albeit potentially prolonging the period before the company goes public and reaps the significant benefits of a successful IPO.
