The choice comes days after Sam Altman said OpenAI would not go public in 2026, calling it an ill-advised time given safety concerns. Nasdaq already landed SpaceX's $1.75trn listing this year, and Nasdaq 100 index inclusion is framed as the main practical benefit of the venue. Anthropic must publish financials at least 15 days before its roadshow, meaning verifiable numbers are due within weeks, against a backdrop of a former researcher's resignation warning that the labs are gambling with human extinction risk above 10 percent. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### Has Anthropic decided which stock exchange it will list on for its IPO? Anthropic has settled on Nasdaq for its planned listing, according to a source familiar with the plans, with the roadshow still targeted for October. The filing remains private and no valuation is fixed, though estimates circulating around the deal put it near $2 trillion. Nasdaq also landed SpaceX's $1.75 trillion listing earlier in the year. _Investors weighing AI company valuations can follow IPO developments like Anthropic's on daily.dev._ ### Why did OpenAI decide not to pursue an IPO in 2026? Sam Altman told Fortune that OpenAI would not list in 2026 because, given everything happening with safety, right now would be an ill-advised moment to go public. This came just days before Anthropic moved forward with plans for its own October Nasdaq listing, despite facing similar safety concerns raised internally. _Anyone tracking AI safety debates and company strategy shifts can follow the story on daily.dev._ ### What financial disclosure requirements does Anthropic face before its IPO roadshow? Anthropic must publish its financials at least 15 days before the roadshow opens, a rule that applies to any company pursuing a public listing. On an October timetable, this means the first verifiable numbers behind valuation estimates, which have so far only come from people briefing reporters, are due within weeks. _Those evaluating AI company valuations before they go public can track these disclosures on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [OpenAI to file for IPO this week, targeting $1 trillion debut](https://daily.dev/posts/openai-to-file-for-ipo-this-week-targeting-1-trillion-debut-mpsybbqyz) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#openai](https://daily.dev/tags/openai), [#anthropic](https://daily.dev/tags/anthropic), [#ai-safety](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-safety), [#ipo](https://daily.dev/tags/ipo) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-has-chosen-nasdaq-for-its-october-ipo-in-the-week-openai-ruled-one-out-xqjtzyhga) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Anthropic has chosen Nasdaq for its October IPO, in the week OpenAI ruled one out","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-has-chosen-nasdaq-for-its-october-ipo-in-the-week-openai-ruled-one-out-xqjtzyhga","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-has-chosen-nasdaq-for-its-october-ipo-in-the-week-openai-ruled-one-out-xqjtzyhga"},"datePublished":"2026-09-13T17:19:50.813Z","dateModified":"2026-09-19T18:32:22.815Z","description":"Anthropic has chosen Nasdaq for a planned October IPO, according to a source who spoke to Business Insider, with the filing still private and valuation...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/dc0bcf82fd4faaf8ce28703e7d4d18fa?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/dc0bcf82fd4faaf8ce28703e7d4d18fa?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The Next Web","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The Next Web","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/tnw","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-has-chosen-nasdaq-for-its-october-ipo-in-the-week-openai-ruled-one-out-xqjtzyhga","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"openai,anthropic,ai-safety,ipo","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The Next Web","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Anthropic has chosen Nasdaq for its October IPO, in the week OpenAI ruled one out"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-has-chosen-nasdaq-for-its-october-ipo-in-the-week-openai-ruled-one-out-xqjtzyhga#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Has Anthropic decided which stock exchange it will list on for its IPO?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Anthropic has settled on Nasdaq for its planned listing, according to a source familiar with the plans, with the roadshow still targeted for October.
