AI startup Anthropic announced on the 1st that it has filed for an IPO, with a listing expected this fall. SpaceX is set to debut on the Nasdaq on the 12th, and reports suggest OpenAI is also preparing for an imminent IPO. This summer marks the beginning of the largest wave of startup listings driven by AI in history. Anthropic, which owns the advanced AI platform Claude, shocked Wall Street and the global financial community with its filing. While share prices and volume remain undisclosed, market estimates suggest a valuation near $1 trillion. SpaceX is expected to list on the 12th with a valuation between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion, potentially entering the top 10 global companies. OpenAI is also planning a September IPO, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley reportedly drafting the prospectus. Anthropic was founded in 2021 by Dario Amodei and has seen rapid growth due to its enterprise-focused AI tools.
