1 hours ago

According to Bloomberg, Sequoia Capital has closed its latest funding round worth $10 billion. So far this year, the firm has returned a total of $5 billion in profits to investors outside of SpaceX. Sequoia’s new co-leaders Alfred Lin and Pat Grady plan to invest $2.5 billion in AI company Anthropic, which will be the largest investment in Sequoia’s 54-year history. Previously, Sequoia had favored firms like OpenAI and xAI, only making its first investment in Anthropic in January 2025. Its decision to significantly increase its stake in Anthropic now shows the firm is making an aggressive bet on the AI sector.
