SpaceX Engages Major Banks for Record IPO Valued at Up to $1.5 Trillion
SpaceX is preparing for a significant initial public offering (IPO) that could be valued between $1 trillion and $1.5 trillion, making it potentially the largest IPO in history. The company has enlisted Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley to manage the offering.
SpaceX aims to raise over $30 billion to fund its projects, including the development of space-based data centers. Currently valued at approximately $800 billion, the company has seen a substantial increase from its previous valuation of nearly $400 billion.
The IPO is tentatively planned for between mid to late 2026, but this timeline may change based on market conditions. The move signals a shift in Musk's strategy, as he previously resisted going public until SpaceX achieved regular flights to Mars.
