OpenAI Closes Record $110B Funding Round Led by Amazon, SoftBank, and NVIDIA — Valued at $840B

OpenAI has completed a $110 billion funding round — one of the largest private investment rounds in corporate history — bringing its post-money valuation to $840 billion. Amazon led with a $50 billion commitment, followed by SoftBank at $30 billion and NVIDIA at $30 billion, with each major investor securing strategic supply and partnership agreements alongside their capital stakes. The round comes as OpenAI reports 900 million weekly active users and 50 million paid subscribers across its consumer and enterprise products. The company said proceeds will fund its ambitious Stargate data center buildout in partnership with Microsoft, accelerate its robotics division following the Sora pivot, and continue frontier model research. The $840 billion valuation makes OpenAI one of the most valuable private companies ever, surpassing its previous $157 billion valuation from late 2024 and fueling speculation about a potential IPO in late 2026.
