Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google and Alphabet, owns approximately 1% of Anthropic, the AI company behind the Claude models. His stake traces back to a Series A investment in 2021 when the company was valued at $461 million. Anthropic reached a private valuation of $965 billion in May 2026 and is preparing for an IPO expected to value it between $1.5 trillion and $2 trillion. If the higher valuation materializes, Schmidt’s stake could be worth approximately $20 billion, potentially increasing his current net worth of $57.5 billion to $67.4 billion by roughly a third. In Q3 2026, Anthropic’s revenue surged 45% quarter-over-quarter to $16.8 billion.
