VC Firm Run by Madonna’s Manager Has $7 Billion Anthropic Stake
Bloomberg reports that Sound Ventures, the venture firm of Madonna's manager Guy Oseary and Ashton Kutcher, holds roughly half a percent of Anthropic — worth about $7 billion at its target $1.4 trillion IPO valuation, a roughly 1,500% gain on the $435 million invested since a 2023 meeting with Dario Amodei. Bloomberg forecasts the offering, expected within days, will be an almost unprecedented wealth-creation event, minting millionaires among Anthropic's staff and yielding billions for investors like Eric Schmidt and Sequoia Capital.
