Anthropic is reportedly in talks with Nvidia to secure funding for its upcoming IPO, according to a Reuters exclusive citing two people familiar with the discussions. Anthropic is looking to raise as much as $100 billion in the offering, which would raise its valuation to around $2 trillion. One source said Nvidia is considering investing up to $10 billion as part of the deal, though terms are still being worked out and could change. Anthropic declined to comment, and Nvidia did not respond to Reuters' request for comment. Reuters noted that Nvidia and Amazon played similar roles in chip designer Arm's IPO, while Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund did the same for SpaceX. If it goes forward, Anthropic's IPO would extend a wave of major stock listings this year, following Elon Musk's SpaceX going public in June. Citing Dealogic data, Reuters reported that U.S. IPOs, excluding blank-check companies, had already raised a record $137 billion through the end of August. Reuters reported that Nvidia agreed last November to invest up to $10 billion in Anthropic as part of a broader partnership under which Anthropic committed to spending $30 billion on Microsoft's Azure cloud service, which runs on Nvidia chips.
