OpenAI said to seek funding at $1.25T pre-money valuation ahead of IPO
What happened
TechCrunch reported on October 23 that OpenAI's post-money valuation was $852 billion after its March round, and that it confidentially filed for an IPO in June. The company is now said to be seeking up to $30 billion before the IPO at a $1.25 trillion pre-money valuation, led by Coatue and UAE investors. Terms are still being negotiated, and the UAE investment may also involve an agreement to supply OpenAI with more compute. OpenAI declined to comment.
