CoreWeave, a New Jersey-based cloud computing provider specializing in AI, has successfully raised $1.1 billion in a Series C funding round led by Coatue, achieving a valuation of $19 billion. This substantial preferred equity investment, which includes contributions from Fidelity and Magnetar Capital, marks a significant increase from its previous valuation of $7 billion just five months ago. The Nvidia-backed company, known for renting out chips to facilitate AI system development, has expanded its operations from three to fourteen datacenters within the past year, and its workforce has quadrupled.
