AI coding startup Cursor, which SpaceX has an option to buy for $60 billion, will open its European headquarters in London and hire some 200 staff, an executive told Reuters, as demand in the region grows for tools that automate software development.
Elon Musk's SpaceX, which is readying for a closely watched IPO this week, said in April it had secured an option to either acquire code-generation startup Cursor for $60 billion later this year, or pay $10 billion for their new partnership, as it pushes deeper into the lucrative market for AI developer tools.
