JP Morgan Chase leads $500M funding round for Honeywell/Cambridge quantum unicorn
The fundraise was joined by Mitsui & Co. and Amgen at a valuation of approximately $5 billion.
Quantum computing company Quantinuum recently closed a $500 million funding round at a valuation of approximately $5 billion. The round was led by JP Morgan Chase and joined by Mitsui & Co. and Amgen, with a follow-on investment from Honeywell.
