Nvidia Close to Investing $30 Billion in OpenAI's Mega Funding Round, Source Says

Nvidia plans a $30 billion investment in OpenAI, replacing a prior $100 billion infrastructure deal, as part of a funding round that may total $100 billion.

  • On Thursday, Feb. 19 the Financial Times reported that Nvidia Corp. is close to finalizing a $30 billion investment in OpenAI that would replace a previously announced $100 billion commitment.
  • OpenAI is pursuing a large funding round that could total $100 billion, Reuters said, with a valuation about $830 billion; the September 2025 infrastructure announcement reshaped sector deals, though questions about the pact have circulated in recent months.
  • The proposal structures Nvidia's contribution as a $30 billion equity stake inside a $730 billion pre-money valuation round and not tied to deployment milestones.
  • The Reuters said it could not immediately verify the report, and the FT reported the deal could be finalized as soon as this weekend, with sources cautioning it is not final.
  • If completed, OpenAI would reinvest much of the capital into Nvidia hardware, boosting demand as tech market observers see this equity move as a validation; OpenAI revenue $20 billion supports spending.
