AI算力提供商Nscale寻求35亿美元IPO前融资
Nscale正在洽谈约35亿美元的融资，以筹备首次公开募股。该公司近期与Anthropic达成了价值450亿美元的合作协议。
AI推荐理由 AI算力基础设施正成为资本博弈核心，Nscale大额融资和锁定大客户预示算力供应将进一步集中化，影响中小从业者的GPU获取成本与供应稳定性。同时，这类数十亿美元级合同可能加剧算力资源被少数巨头主导的治理风险。

AI计算提供商Nscale寻求35亿美元的IPO前融资
Nscale，一家成立仅两年的英国AI基础设施公司，表示最早可能在本月底上市。在预期的IPO之前，据报道该公司正在洽谈额外筹集35亿美元。
彭博社周五报道称，该公司正寻求向一群投资者出售15亿美元的可转换债券——一种以后可以转换为公司股票的贷款——同时也在寻求从Nvidia获得额外的20亿美元融资。
Nvidia也参与了该公司3月份的B轮融资，该轮融资由投资基金Aker领投，筹集了11亿美元。Nscale称其这一轮融资是“欧洲历史上最大的B轮融资”。该公司的A轮融资于2024年12月筹集了1.55亿美元。
TechCrunch已联系Nscale和Nvidia寻求评论。
在当前AI热潮时期，AI基础设施初创公司经历了巨大增长，计算已成为一种竞争性货币。
Nscale最近与Anthropic签署了一项价值约450亿美元的大型协议。本周早些时候，有报道称Nscale一直告诉潜在投资者，该交易后其收入约为1030亿美元。据The Information报道，这个数字不是当前销售额；而是基于已签署客户租约的预测。

AI compute provider Nscale is looking for $3.5B in pre-IPO financing
Nscale, a British AI infrastructure company founded just two years ago, has said it may go public as early as later this month. Ahead of that expected IPO, the company is reportedly in talks to raise an additional $3.5 billion.
Bloomberg reported Friday that the company is looking to sell $1.5 billion in convertible notes — a type of loan that can later convert into company stock — to a group of investors, while also seeking an additional $2 billion in financing from Nvidia.
Nvidia also participated in the firm’s Series B funding round in March, a $1.1 billion raise led by investment fund Aker. Nscale hailed its round as “the largest Series B in European history.” The company’s Series A round, in December of 2024, raised $155 million.
TechCrunch reached out to Nscale and Nvidia for comment.
AI infrastructure startups have seen immense growth amid the current era of AI enthusiasm, wherein compute has become a competitive currency.
Nscale recently signed a large deal with Anthropic worth approximately $45 billion. Earlier this week, reports emerged that Nscale had been telling potential investors that it has approximately $103 billion in revenue following the deal. That figure isn’t current sales; it’s a projection based on signed customer leases, according to The Information.
