Moonshot AI has told investors it’s preparing to list in as early as six months, seizing the opportunity to tap capital markets after its latest model upended industry perceptions of China’s burgeoning capabilities and sent global tech stocks reeling.
The Chinese AI pioneer has officially distributed the shareholder resolution to its investors, seeking the blessing of its backers on a Hong Kong listing, people familiar with the matter said. The initiation of the notification process indicates an IPO could happen as soon as within the next six months.
Moonshot is now in the process of wrapping a fundraising round that may value the three-year-old startup at more than $30 billion, the people said.
