Observer | The SpaceX Insiders Set to Make Billions in Its Blockbuster IPO by Sissi Cao

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

SpaceX’s long‑awaited IPO filing reveals a projected $2 trillion valuation that would make Elon Musk the world’s first trillionaire and could turn key insiders—COO Gwynne Shotwell (12.6 million shares, worth ~ $3 billion), CFO Bret Johnsen (9.6 million shares, ~ $1.4 billion), and early board members such as Luke Nosek, Antonio Gracias, Steve Jurvetson and others—into multibillionaires. The company posted a $4.9 billion loss last year and a $4.3 billion loss in the first quarter of 2026 despite 33 % revenue growth, with capital spending soaring to $20.7 billion in 2025, 60 % of which went to AI initiatives. SpaceX aims to list on Nasdaq as “SPCX” in June, positioning itself at the heart of the AI infrastructure race and raising questions about whether public investors will tolerate its aggressive loss‑making strategy.

Attendees, with white-and-red gift bags and lanyards, knew to be closelipped when approached by hotel interlopers
or by the Times reporter, who was not invited to the closed-press festivities.

But a copy of the agenda listed remarks by several tech billionaires, including the Anduril co-founder #Palmer #Luckey and the venture capitalist #Marc #Andreessen, who spoke about his support for deregulating technology
and the mixed reaction in Silicon Valley to his endorsement of Mr. Trump, according to attendees.

There were tech up-and-comers, too:
Donald Trump #Jr. announced at the welcome dinner that he was entering venture capital.

And days before the president-elect chose Robert F. #Kennedy Jr. for health and human services secretary,
Mr. Kennedy spoke extensively about his public-health work to a standing ovation.

Ms. #Wiles also led a session on “2024 Election Analysis,” where she gave a preview of Mr. Trump’s first days as president.

“It’s the domestic ‘Davos in the desert,’” said the Rockbridge backer #Omeed #Malik, referring to the annual business conference in Riyadh, and Donald Trump Jr.’s new business partner.

➡️Rockbridge began with more humility.

Back in 2019, Mr. #Vance, then best known as the author of “Hilbilly Elegy,” and a conservative media figure named #Chris #Buskirk began informally hosting a series of small dinners
that would eventually become called Rockbridge.

The group drew early support from the venture capitalist #Peter #Thiel and eventually caught the attention of Donald J. Trump, who spoke at a few meetings.

Once in the fall and once in the spring, Rockbridge began to gather at places like the Four Seasons in Palm Beach, Fla.,
or the Ritz-Carlton in Dallas for three days of political panels and business networking.

Speakers included people like #Tucker #Carlson; the Thiel protégé #Blake #Masters; the casino mogul #Steve #Wynn; the investor #David #Sacks; and #Woody #Johnson, the billionaire owner of the New York Jets.

Not all attendees have politics at the top of their mind.

Some are primarily interested in business, seeing Rockbridge as a conservative-tinged version of the elite Sun Valley conference.

"...days at #PayPal. Former 👉PayPal COO #DavidSacks said, in 2017, “#Bitcoin is fulfilling PayPal’s original vision to create a ‘new world currency👈.’"

"...PayPal co-founder #LukeNosek confirmed in 2019, “The initial mission of PayPal was to create a *global currency* that was independent of interference by … corrupt cartels of banks and governments that were debasing their currencies.”..."

Does this sound familiar?
