The Wall Street Journal reports Tuesday that Twitter is raising more funds from private investors that would value the company as high as $7 billion. 

The valuation comes just seven months after Twitter raised $200 million from other private investors that valued the internet messaging company at $3.7 billion. 

The report notes Twitter hopes to build an ad system that will eventually generate billions of dollars annually. In addition Twitter is currently on track to generate $150 million from ad revenue this year. 

Additionally, the paper claims that Twitter is in no hurry to file for an initial public offering.
