Blackstone Inc. is reportedly holding early discussions with investors about a second large debt financing package to help fund Anthropic PBC’s chip-related operations tied to Alphabet Inc.’s Google. Bloomberg reports that the talks are aimed at assessing investor interest in a new “mega-debt” round specifically linked to Anthropic’s planned use of Google chips. NDTV similarly says Blackstone is pitching a potential debt package worth at least $36 billion for the Anthropic chip deal, framing it as a follow-on financing effort.
The reports also connect the timing of the financing discussions to developments around Anthropic’s capital-raising plans, noting that Anthropic has a confidential U.S. IPO filing. While the outlets describe the size and purpose of the proposed debt financing, they do not indicate that a final agreement has been reached. The information therefore reflects pitch-stage discussions and interest checks rather than confirmed terms or closed financing.
