AI chipmaker Groq confirms $650M raise, re-staffs after Nvidias $20B not-acqui-hire deal
For AI chipmaker Groq, the answer appears to be raise more money from investors — who were said to have profited handsomely after a deal with Nvidia in December — hire more talent, and pivot.
On Monday, Groq announced a new $650 million funding round, confirming earlier reports. The raise comes roughly six months after Nvidia signed a non-exclusive licensing agreement for Groq’s technology and hired away founder and CEO Jonathan Ross, president Sunny Madra, and other employees. Groq did not disclose its new valuation. It was last valued at $6.9 billion following a $750 million round in September.
