Anthropic is expanding its European presence by opening offices in Paris and Munich to meet growing demand for its AI models, with significant revenue growth in the region.
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -U.S. AI startup Anthropic said on Friday it was planning to expand its operations across Europe, and open offices in the French capital Paris and Munich in Germany.
The move comes on the heels of a large-scale global expansion by Anthropic to triple its international workforce to meet a rise in demand for its Claude AI large language models outside the United States.
San Francisco-based Anthropic, last valued at $183 billion and backed by Google-parent Alphabet and Amazon.com, was formed in 2021 by a group of former OpenAI employees.
It has offices in London, Dublin and Zurich in Europe, and has tripled the number of employees in the region last year.
"EMEA has become our fastest-growing region, with a run-rate revenue that has grown more than 9 times in the past year," the company said in a statement.
Anthropic, which counts European companies such as L'Oréal, BMW, SAP, Lovable and N26 as its clients, said its European workforce will span every aspect of its business, from research and engineering to sales and operations.

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and learn. It encompasses various technologies, including machine learning and natural language processing.
A startup is a newly established business, often in the technology sector, that aims to develop a unique product or service and grow rapidly. Startups typically seek funding to scale their operations.
A large language model is a type of AI that uses deep learning techniques to understand and generate human language. These models are trained on vast amounts of text data to perform various language tasks.
Workforce expansion refers to the process of increasing the number of employees in a company or organization to meet growing demands or to enhance operational capabilities.
Run-rate revenue is a financial metric that projects a company's future revenue based on current performance. It is typically calculated by annualizing current revenue figures to estimate future earnings.
