Nvidia is weighing an investment of up to $10 billion in Anthropic’s upcoming public offering, a stake that could tie the chipmaker’s earnings to the AI startup’s performance. Yahoo Finance notes that the infusion could help make the IPO larger than SpaceX’s historic float, while Amazon is reported to have an even larger financial interest in the same deal. The talks come as Anthropic prepares what several sources call the largest IPO of the year, with valuation targets ranging from $2 trillion to $2.3 trillion.
Bloomberg and Reuters cite a wave of AI‑driven listings that could follow, and banks such as Goldman Sachs and Bank of America are said to be vying to manage the proceeds earmarked for Anthropic staffers, underscoring the financial sector’s appetite for AI‑centric capital raises. Reports diverge on the precise IPO valuation and on whether Nvidia’s $10 billion figure is a firm commitment or a maximum ceiling. Neither Reuters nor Yahoo Finance provides details on timing, final equity percentage, or the identities of other prospective investors beyond Amazon’s hinted exposure.
The lack of disclosed terms leaves open questions about how much control Nvidia would obtain, how the proceeds will be allocated, and what impact the listing will have on the broader AI fundraising environment.
