Anthropic IPO: Meet 4 Indian-origin leaders handling its finances, tech and AI governance

As Anthropic prepares to enter the stock market, four Indian-origin leaders are working across some of the most important parts of its business. Krishna Rao is responsible for managing the money behind its expansion, Rahul Patil oversees the technology powering its AI models, Sid Bidasaria helped build its fast-growing coding tool, and Neil 'Buddy' Shah has a role in ensuring the company stays committed to its AI mission. Their roles come into focus as Anthropic moves towards a potential blockbuster IPO. The company filed its US listing paperwork on October 26, following a sharp rise in demand for its Claude AI models. Its revenue reached $16.29 billion in the first six months of 2026, compared with $1.16 billion in the same period last year.
