Anthropic reportedly plans to go public in September or early October, holding pre-IPO meetings with investors

Odaily News AI company Anthropic is holding pre-IPO meetings with potential investors to boost market confidence in its listing plans.

According to reports, Anthropic is currently valued at approximately $965 billion. If successfully listed, it could become one of the largest IPOs in history. The company has recently faced multiple challenges, including intensifying competition from low-cost AI systems, strained relations with the Trump administration, and opposition to data center construction in various parts of the United States.

Sources say investors have asked Anthropic executives during the meetings about the potential impact of these factors on the company's growth. Anthropic's management, however, downplayed the impact of competition from low-cost AI systems, stating that the company will continue to focus on developing frontier AI models.

It is understood that Anthropic plans to go public in September or early October, though specific offering prices and timelines have not yet been announced. Additionally, during the pre-IPO meetings, the company revealed to some investors that it will further expand into AI applications in healthcare and biology in the future. (The Wall Street Journal)
