The software is popular for use cases requiring large volumes of data analytics, including fraud detection, social media recommendation engines, and network monitoring. More than 75% of Fortune 100 companies are clients.
A February 2024 Bloomberg reporting indicated Neo4j is “IPO-ready” and plans to go public on the Nasdaq stock exchange when the next IPO window opens. In November 2024, CEO Emil Eifrem said he was inspired by Klarna’s U.S. filing and anticipates following in their footsteps if successful.

38. Mistral AI IPO
Mistral AI is a French open-source AI startup that has developed a large language model (LLM) that competes with OpenAI and Anthropic.
Although its models are not as large as those of other dominant LLMs (as measured by parameters), they rival the capabilities of other LLMs in their ability to reason—a key trait in AI.
The company exemplifies a needed divergence from Silicon Valley AI dominance, as it is based in Paris and hires top European engineers.
Arthur Mensch, Timothée Lacroix, and Guillaume Lample have all worked for U.S. tech companies, including Alphabet and Meta (Facebook). They launched Mistral AI in April 2023 and quickly raised private capital from some of the world’s top venture capital firms.
Mistral AI takes its name from the cold northwesterly winds of Southern France.
Mensch told Bloomberg TV in January 2025 that the company is not for sale and plans to IPO. The timing was not specified.
