Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX are bigger than the last 25 years of tech exits
Summary
A recent NCVA-Pitchbook Venture Monitor report highlights that the pending public market entries of Anthropic and OpenAI, combined with the recent SpaceX IPO, represent a valuation milestone exceeding the total value of all U.S. venture-backed exits since 2000. While these figures focus on total value rather than liquid cash and exclude certain non-U.S. entities, the scale remains unprecedented. This shift is driven by companies staying private longer and the massive capital requirements of AI development, which are pushing the limits of current financial infrastructure.
