开源AI平台Hugging Face正与英伟达(Nvidia)进行收购谈判,交易估值可能超过130亿美元1。不过,双方尚未达成协议,谈判仍可能破裂1。
此举是英伟达利用其庞大现金储备加大投资并购力度的一部分1。英伟达已承诺在本财年剩余时间投入180亿美元用于股权投资,目前已在私营公司持有479亿美元投资1。此前,英伟达曾在2023年参与了Hugging Face的2.35亿美元融资轮,当时Hugging Face估值为45亿美元1。此外,Hugging Face去年拒绝了英伟达的5亿美元投资要约,该要约估值为70亿美元1。微软(Microsoft)也曾与Hugging Face会面,但相关谈判并未在进行中1。
Nvidia is currently engaged in acquisition negotiations with the open-source artificial intelligence platform Hugging Face, with the potential deal valued at more than $13 billion 1. Despite these ongoing discussions, the two parties have not yet reached an agreement, and the negotiations could still collapse 1. This potential acquisition is part of Nvidia's broader strategy to leverage its massive cash reserves to increase its investment and acquisition efforts 1.
Highlighting its financial commitment, Nvidia has pledged to invest $18 billion in equity for the remainder of the current fiscal year, adding to its existing $47.9 billion portfolio of investments in private companies 1. The financial history between the two entities includes Nvidia's participation in a $235 million funding round for Hugging Face in 2023, which valued the company at $4.5 billion 1. Furthermore, Hugging Face rejected a $500 million investment offer from Nvidia last year that carried a $7 billion valuation 1. In related industry developments, Microsoft has also met with Hugging Face, although those talks are not currently ongoing 1.
