About This Dataset

Private AI Investment by Country 2025

Private investment in AI during 2025, in billions of US dollars, for eight selected countries. Values come from Figure 4.2.8 of Stanford HAI’s 2026 AI Index, using Quid data. The report publication year is 2026; the investment year is 2025. This measure excludes government-backed funding and is not a comparison of total national AI spending, company revenue or cumulative investment.

Analysis

The United States records $285.88 billion, compared with $12.41 billion in China and $5.90 billion in the United Kingdom. France ($4.36 billion) and Canada ($4.28 billion) differ by $0.08 billion. The US-to-China ratio is about 23.0 within this private-investment measure. Government funding is excluded, so this ratio cannot describe all funding available to either country’s AI industry.
