Anthropic's Seven Co-Founders Set for Massive Windfall Ahead of IPO
Anthropic's seven co-founders are poised to become multi-billionaires as the artificial intelligence company prepares to go public.
Anthropic was founded in 2021 by seven individuals who left OpenAI due to concerns over commercialization and AI safety. The group consists of siblings Dario and Daniela Amodei, Tom Brown, Jack Clark, Jared Kaplan, Sam McCandlish, and Chris Olah. With trading expected to begin on November 19, the upcoming initial public offering could value the company near $1.4 trillion. Each co-founder owns roughly a 1.4% stake, which is expected to be valued between $17 billion and $18 billion if the IPO reaches its target price.
