NEWS: OpenAI is laying the groundwork for an IPO at a $1 trillion valuation. OpenAI is considering filing with regulators as soon as the second half of 2026. The company has looked at raising $60 billion at the low end and likely more. CFO Sarah Friar has told some associates the company is aiming for a 2027 listing. But some advisers predict it could come even sooner, around late 2026. This would make it one of the biggest IPO's of all time.
