The global semiconductor industry has once again been shaken by a shocking development. Cerebras, a star company in the field of wafer-level AI inference chips, has officially completed a $1 billion H-round financing. This round was led by Tiger Global, with strategic participation from chip giant AMD. After this round of financing, Cerebras' valuation surged directly to about $23 billion.

Notably, Cerebras' valuation growth has been astonishing. Just about four months ago, at the end of September 2025, the company had completed its G-round financing, with a post-money valuation of $8.1 billion. This means that within a very short period, its value has nearly doubled, fully demonstrating the high enthusiasm of the capital market for the independent AI inference chip sector.

As one of the most representative independent AI inference ASIC manufacturers, Cerebras continues to challenge industry limits in performance with its unique wafer-level large chip technology. Previously, the company had signed a multi-year cooperation agreement with OpenAI. As competition from giants like NVIDIA intensifies in this field, Cerebras is accelerating to establish its core position in the next generation of AI computing market, supported by ample financial resources.
