FuriosaAI raises $620 million Series D at $2.9 billion valuation
Techmeme, citing Bloomberg, said Seoul-based AI chip startup FuriosaAI raised a $620 million Series D at a $2.9 billion valuation, with South Korea's National Growth Fund contributing $280 million.
Seoul-based AI chip startup FuriosaAI raised $620 million in a Series D round at a $2.9 billion valuation, according to a Techmeme summary of a Bloomberg report by Yoolim Lee1.
The valuation is up from $735 million in 2025, Techmeme said, citing Bloomberg1.
South Korea's National Growth Fund contributed $280 million to the round, according to the same summary1.
Techmeme did not publish the full Bloomberg article, and WhatsNewPaper could not independently read the original report behind a login wall1.
The round size, the National Growth Fund's stake, and the 2025 valuation comparison are the facts on the Techmeme record; other investor names, chip production plans, and customer details were not in that summary1.
