Shirkadta Etched waxay haysaa talabado lacag ah oo gaaraysa $50 bilion, iyadoo qiimaha $21 bilion ah
Shirkadda AI-ka ee Etched, oo saddex bilood ka dib lacagta $700 milyan ah ee ay ka heshay, waxay haysaa talabado lacageed oo ka yimid macmiilada ugu sarreeya iyo kuwa kale, iyadoo qiimaha ay gaarayaan $40 bilion ilaa $50 bilion. Shirkadda oo 4 sano jir ah, waxay leedahay macaamiil dhan $1 bilion, iyadoo Jane Street ay hoggaamisay lacagta ugu dambeysay.
Kala duwanaanshaha qiimaha iyo horumarka shirkadda
Shirkadda Etched waxay wali ka shaqaynayaa talabada lacageed ee ay haysato, iyadoo qiimaha ay ka yimaadaan $40 bilion ilaa $50 bilion. Qof la xiriiray shirkadda ayaa sheegay in wada-hadallada lacag-bixinta ay weli hore u socdaan, sidaas darteedna shuruudaha haddii la gaaro waxay isbedeli karaan. Haddii shirkaddu ay hesho lacag dhan $700 milyan sida ugu dambeysay, waxay siinaysaa muddo dhan 3.5 sano oo shaqo ah.
Shirkadda oo 4 sano jir ah, waxay leedahay macaamiil dhan $1 bilion, iyadoo Jane Street ay hoggaamisay lacagta ugu dambeysay. Etched waxay sheegtay in July ay heshay $1 bilion oo amarro ah, iyadoo mid ka mid ah Jane Street ah. Shirkaddu waxay leedahay xarun 10-megawatt ah oo Silicon Valley ah, iyadoo xarun kale oo Taiwan ah ay sameysay si ay u xoojiso soo saarista.
Soo jiidashada macmiilada iyo khibradda farsamada
Shirkaddu waxay leedahay khibrad weyn oo ku saabsan farsamada, iyadoo 15% shaqaalaha 400-ka ah ee ay leedahay ay horey u shaqaysteen shirkadda Nvidia. Tani waxay muujinaysa in shirkaddu ay leedahay khibrad weyn oo ku saabsan farsamada, iyadoo macmiilada ay jecel yihiin inay la shaqeeyaan shirkadaha leh khibrad weyn.
Gavin Uberti iyo Chris Zhu, oo ah xirfadlayaasha shirkadda, waxay isku kulmeen farsamo-qaabka Harvard, iyadoo Robert Wachen uu ahaa xiriirka Gavin. Shirkaddu waxay leedahay farsamooyin cusub oo ay sameysay si ay u xoojiso farsamada, iyadoo macmiilada ay jecel yihiin inay la shaqeeyaan shirkadaha leh khibrad weyn.
Sources indicate that Etched, a four-year-old AI chip startup, is reviewing incoming investment bids ranging from $40 billion to $50 billion. This activity occurs just months after the company raised $700 million at a $21 billion valuation, led by Jane Street.
Rapid Valuation Growth and Strategic Positioning
Etched is currently evaluating offers that significantly exceed its previous valuation, with bids reaching up to $50 billion from various backers. The company, which is only four years old, previously secured $700 million in September at a $21 billion valuation. This rapid increase in value follows a $300 million round announced in July at a $10.3 billion valuation led by Sequoia.
The startup is pursuing the expensive segment of the AI industry by building full hardware systems powered by its own proprietary chips. Co-founders Gavin Uberti and Chris Zhu, who met at Harvard, along with COO Robert Wachen, dropped out of school to pursue the venture. Investors are enthusiastic because Etched has designed new components to speed up inference, a process critical for trading firms like Jane Street.
Operational Scale and Market Demand
The company has demonstrated strong market traction, securing $1 billion in customer orders, including a delivery from Jane Street after manufacturing a test chip at a TSMC factory. Etched claims its processors can process more tokens faster and at a lower cost than Nvidia's, offering a microscopic speed advantage that yields massive profits for its clients.
Etched operates a new 10-megawatt data center in Silicon Valley and has established a facility in Taiwan to coordinate production near TSMC. Roughly 15% of its 400-person workforce has previously worked at the chip giant Nvidia. If the company raises as much as its last round, it could secure a cushion of up to 3.5 years of runway.
