Summary
$100 billion is the amount Anthropic’s bankers have floated in talks with potential investors for the AI company’s IPO, which could value it at $2 trillion.
That would make the five-year-old San Francisco company the biggest public offering on record, topping SpaceX’s June debut that raised $85.7 billion at a $1.77 trillion valuation.
Anthropic was valued at about $900 billion in a private fundraising round this year and filed to go public in June, suggesting a sharp step-up if investor demand holds.
The listing would test Wall Street’s appetite for AI stocks amid political and economic uncertainty, with OpenAI also discussing a possible public offering next year.
