Anthropic is set to go public this year, with a valuation that could reach as high as $2 trillion. This anticipated IPO is expected to benefit both early-stage and later-stage investors significantly. Currently, the company holds a private market valuation of $965 billion, and many of its venture capitalists (VCs) and early backers have stakes worth billions. Here’s a breakdown of what some of these investors are worth based on the latest valuation, according to Bloomberg.

Key Investors and Their Stakes

  • Eric Schmidt: The former Google CEO invested in Anthropic’s Series A in 2021, when the startup was valued at $461 million. Today, Schmidt owns about 1% of the company, making his stake worth nearly $10 billion at the current private valuation.
  • Iconiq: This investment firm made a significant move by writing a $6 billion check to Anthropic last year, when the company was valued at $183 billion. This late-stage investment is now worth $17 billion and has the potential to double upon the IPO.
