Private funding of over $150 million securing for Anaconda to further progress in the realm of Artificial Intelligence through the utilization of open-source technology at a grand scale.
Anaconda, a Python distribution platform with over 21 billion downloads and 50 million users, has secured a Series C funding round of over $150 million, led by Insight Partners and Mubadala Capital [1][3][5]. This investment will accelerate the development and adoption of Anaconda's newly launched AI Platform, aimed at empowering enterprises to build scalable, mission-critical AI systems.
The AI Platform offers proven, curated, and verified packages that accelerate deployments with confidence. Its goal is to provide a unified, open-source Python ecosystem, which is central to AI, and to manage key open source artifacts and components for fast, scalable innovation in AI [1][3].
Anaconda's expansion plans include deepening its role as the standardized Python distribution platform for AI across 95% of Fortune 500 companies and over 10,000 enterprises. The company aims to enable enterprises to manage open source components and AI artifacts more effectively, driving faster innovation with a secure and scalable platform [1][3].
The partnership with Databricks and the focus on enterprise-ready AI systems suggest upcoming enhancements to interoperability, security, and ease of use within their AI ecosystem. Anaconda's strategic investment positions it to help companies transition from isolated data science projects to scalable, mission-critical AI systems [1][3].
Laura Sellers, CPTO of Anaconda, is eager to expand on the work done to accelerate deployments with confidence and offer choice and customization. The funds raised will be used for new AI features, strategic acquisitions, global expansion, and providing liquidity options for employees [2].
George Mathew, Managing Director of Insight Partners, believes Anaconda is well-positioned for the shift from specialized data science to generalized AI systems. He emphasizes the need for a foundational platform to manage key open source artifacts and components for fast, scalable innovation in AI [4].
As of July 2025, Anaconda is profitable with over $150 million in annual recurring revenue [6]. This investment underscores the growing demand for robust, enterprise-ready AI solutions and Anaconda's commitment to meeting that demand.
