Synopsis

Databricks is reportedly discussing a new funding round that could value the company at over $130 billion, far above its previous $100 billion valuation. The AI-focused data platform, which recently raised $1 billion, continues to see strong demand and now serves around 15,000 customers worldwide.

Data analytics firm Databricks is in talks to raise funds at a valuation of more than $130 billion, about 30% higher than its last financing round two months ago, The Information reported on Monday, citing two people familiar with the discussion.

The company declined to comment on the report.

Databricks has not signed a term sheet with any investment firms, the report added.


Reuters could not immediately confirm the report.

In September, the San Francisco-based company closed a $1-billion-funding round that valued it at $100 billion, making it one of the world's most valuable private companies.

At the time, Databricks said it was on track to hit $4 billion in annualized revenue, driven by booming demand for its artificial intelligence products. The company planned to use the proceeds to accelerate its AI strategy, expand products, launch an operational database category and pursue AI acquisitions and research.

Founded in 2013, Databricks offers a platform that helps users ingest, analyze and build AI applications. The company has long been viewed as a leading candidate to go public and has received numerous investor inquiries.

Databricks has about 15,000 customers, including payments firm Block, energy giant Shell and electric vehicle maker Rivian.
