Nvidia Eyes Anthropic Investment Ahead of Potential $100 Billion AI IPO
Anthropic, an artificial intelligence developer, is in talks with Nvidia to bring the chipmaker on board as a cornerstone investor in its initial public offering. The proposed deal could reshape the AI investment race, linking a fast-growing model developer with the chipmaker powering much of its expansion.
The negotiations are ongoing, and their terms may change, but according to two people familiar with the negotiations, Nvidia is considering investing up to $10 billion in the offering. This would give Anthropic a strategic partner before it goes public and deepen ties between the chipmaker and one of its largest customers.
Anthropic plans to raise up to $100 billion, potentially valuing the company at approximately $2 trillion. Having a financially powerful cornerstone investor could increase confidence in the offering.
