The Trump administration announced a $2 billion investment in nine quantum computing companies, sourced from the 2022 Chips and Science Act. IBM will receive $1 billion, GlobalFoundries $375 million, while D-Wave Quantum, Rigetti Computing, and Infleqtion each receive $100 million.

The global Purpose Built Backup Appliance (PBBA) market is projected to grow from USD 8.67 billion in 2025 to USD 22.0 billion by 2035, driven by rising ransomware threats, increased enterprise data volumes, and regulatory compliance requirements. The market is experiencing rapid growth across North America and Europe, with Asia Pacific emerging as the fastest-growing region. Hardware components and open systems dominate the market, while services are expected to grow fastest.
Rigetti Computing's stock has plummeted 71% from its $56.34 peak to $16, as the quantum computing company struggles with competition, unprofitability, and uneven revenue growth.
