After tussle with Pentagon, Anthropic’s $60 billion worth of recent investments might be at risk
The fallout from Anthropic’s dramatic split from the Pentagon is still being measured. For a domestic company to be labeled a “supply-chain risk to national security” by the US Defense secretary is unprecedented, as Anthropic noted in a post responding to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s tweet.
Making it even more shocking is the fact that Anthropic appeared to be on track to have one of the largest and most-anticipated tech IPOs in American history.
Axios’s Dan Primack writes that the $60 billion in venture capital Anthropic just raised last month could very well be at risk. Primack argues that investors may get cold feet now that the company has run afoul of the Trump administration, and faces significant uncertainty as the industry waits to see what official acts follow Hegseth’s words.
