IBM攜手商務部建量子晶圓廠，量子概念股飆漲

美國商務部於 5 月 21 日宣布，已與 IBM、格羅方德（GlobalFoundries）等 9 家量子計算業者簽署意向書，計畫依據 2022 年《晶片與科學法案》（CHIPS and Science Act）發放總額達 20.13 億美元的補助，藉此鞏固美國在次世代科技領域的領導地位。

作為交換，美國政府將取得各受資助企業的少數非控制性股權，顯示川普（Donald Trump）政府重塑晶片法案、強調財政投資回報的策略。IBM 週四盤中股價狂飆 12%，創下一年多來最大單日漲幅，其餘量子計算概念股亦全面暴漲。

AI Overview

The U.S. government awarded IBM a $1 billion grant from the CHIPS and Science Act to establish Anderon, a purpose-built quantum wafer foundry in Albany, New York. The funding aims to bolster domestic supply chains and manufacturing for quantum computing, with the government taking a minority equity stake in the company. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Breakdown of the Initiative

• Award Amount: $1 billion (part of a broader $2 billion federal push across nine quantum-computing firms).
• Project Name: Anderon (a new standalone quantum wafer foundry).
• Location: Albany, New York.
• Primary Goal: Accelerating the manufacturing of advanced quantum processors, scaling domestic hardware production, and securing global leadership in advanced computing. [1, 2, 3]

Broader CHIPS Act Quantum Funding

IBM was the largest beneficiary in a broader Commerce Department package. Smaller quantum-computing firms also received grants, including GlobalFoundries ($375 million), along with D-Wave Quantum, Rigetti Computing, and Infleqtion (about $100 million each). As a condition of these awards, the U.S. government takes non-controlling equity stakes in the companies to ensure taxpayers benefit from industry growth. [1, 2, 3]
