Elon Musk’s brain implant startup, Neuralink, has raised $600 million in a funding round that values the company at $9 billion pre-money, Semafor reported, citing anonymous sources.
Semafor did not mention the investors involved in the round. Neuralink last raised $43 million in venture capital, in November 2023, and was valued at about $5 billion in June 2023, Reuters reported at the time.
Neuralink did not immediately return requests for comment outside regular business hours.
Semafor’s report corroborates earlier reporting from Bloomberg, which noted in April that the startup was looking to raise $500 million at a $8.5 billion pre-money valuation.
