- OpenAI raised the largest private round ever in Q1 2025, a $40 billion funding that values the company at an unprecedented $300 billion. The deal, which alone accounts for more than half of U.S. venture funding in Q1, pushed global funding in the first quarter to $112 billion, Crunchbase data shows.
