AI company Anthropic has set a target valuation of $350 billion for its new funding round, with the financing scale expected to be between $10 billion and $15 billion. According to informed sources, this round of financing is led by investment firm Coatue and Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC, with participation from Sequoia Capital. Notably, Sequoia Capital is also an investor in OpenAI, marking its renewed strategic move in the generative AI field.

Microsoft and NVIDIA may become potential follow-on investors. Microsoft plans to invest up to $5 billion, while NVIDIA is considering an investment of $10 billion. If the two tech giants ultimately confirm their participation, the total amount of this funding round will increase significantly. Currently, Anthropic has not issued an official statement regarding the financing details, but the market generally believes that the commercialization progress of its core product, the Claude series of large language models, is a key factor attracting capital.

Financial data shows that Anthropic's revenue last year approached $10 billion, primarily from enterprise AI service subscriptions and API calls. Analysis indicates that the $350 billion valuation needs to be based on sustained technological breakthroughs and market share expansion. Especially against the backdrop of intensifying competition in generative AI, the feasibility of its commercialization path still requires time for validation.
