Eric Schmidt holds roughly 1% of Anthropic, a stake worth about $20B if the company's IPO reaches a $2T valuation, per rohanpaulai citing beffjezos.
Anthropic's 2021 Series A raised just $124M at a $461M valuation (Pitchbook), with Schmidt supplying a meaningful share of that round. Even at the $965B valuation implied by May's $65B round, his holding is already worth nearly $10B — surpassing his Innovation Endeavors fund's 1,400-fold return on Uber.
