OpenAI 拟以 1.25 万亿美元估值融资 300 亿美元，IPO 前布局
OpenAI working on new $30B raise at $1.25T valuation ahead of IPO
OpenAI 正以 1.25 万亿美元估值推进 300 亿美元融资，由 Coatue 及阿联酋投资机构主导。若估值落地，OpenAI 将成为史上估值最高的私营企业，这也推高了其即将进行的 IPO 门槛。此外，Anthropic 据报道正寻求 1.5 至 2 万亿美元估值上市，两家机构均已在今年 6 月提交了 IPO 保密文件。

OpenAI is reportedly close to securing another mega round of private funding, rather than plowing ahead with an IPO. The AI lab is working on raising up to $30 billion at a $1.25 trillion pre-money valuation in a round led by Coatue and investors in UAE, sources told CNBC.
This follows a similar report by Bloomberg a month ago which said the AI lab was working on raising $30 billion at a $1.4 trillion valuation. Terms are still being negotiated, both outlets report, so they could ultimately change. CNBC reports that the UAE funding could also be coupled with a deal to secure more computing capacity for OpenAI from the UAE, too. OpenAI declined comment.
Should OpenAI command a valuation of more than $1 trillion with this round, it would break records as the most valued private company ever. That valuation would also raise the bar even higher for OpenAI’s forthcoming IPO. OpenAI filed confidential paperwork for an IPO in June, after its last raise in March valued the ChatGPT maker at $852 billion post-money.
That high valuation could also have ramifications for Anthropic’s IPO, which many believe is closer to materializing. (Rumors suggest we could see Anthropic’s public S-1 filing any day now.) The latest reports have Anthropic seeking a $1.5 to $2 trillion valuation for its public debut, CNBC reports. Anthropic raised $65 billion at a $965 billion valuation in May in what many believed at the time would be its last big round before an IPO. It also filed confidential paperwork in June.
