IBM will invest more than $10 billion ‌over the next five years ‌in an effort to deliver the ​first large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029, according to an SEC filing on Thursday. The ‌investment will ⁠go toward R&D, capital expenditures, scaling manufacturing capabilities ⁠and acquisitions, the company known for building the Watson supercomputer ​said. Last week, ​companies ​including IBM and ‌GlobalFoundries announced the Trump administration will take stakes in quantum computing firms to secure leadership in the emerging technology.

Under the new project, dubbed Project Lightwell, the companies said they will deploy a global force of 20,000 engineers, supported by advanced AI, to establish a trusted enterprise clearinghouse.

IBM said on Thursday it has committed $5 billion to an initiative that will deploy engineers and AI tools ‌to help companies better secure open source software. The initiative, called ‌Project Lightwell, seeks to create a "clearinghouse" for open source security, establishing a model for managing ​risks across the software supply chain. Open source software is freely available code that anyone can use and modify, and powers the technology systems of most companies.

IBM is investing $5 billion and deploying more than 20,000 engineers to help secure open source software, according to an announcement shared first with Axios.

Nearly half of the planned funding is slated for one profitable tech giant. And the other beneficiaries may be too speculative.

Investors looking for a pure-play bet on quantum computing are about to get their biggest opportunity of the year. Quantinuum, the quantum firm backed by industrial giant Honeywell set the terms for its initial public offering on Tuesday, announcing plans to sell nearly 21.1 million shares at an expected price range of $45 to $50 each. The company sees net proceeds of $941.7 million at the midpoint of the range, or roughly $1.09 billion if underwriters exercise an option to buy an additional 3.16 million shares.

The federal government plans to provide hundreds of millions of dollars to a number of quantum firms to support domestic foundry and technology development.

The initial public offering for Quantinuum, the quantum computing company backed by Honeywell, was priced in an encouraging sign that investors may soon have a new way to buy into the emergent technology. Quantinuum said Tuesday that it plans to sell nearly 21.1 million shares in its IPO, at an expected price range of $45 to $50 a share. A source with direct knowledge of the matter told Barron’s last year that Honeywell was looking to take the company public as soon as late 2026, market conditions permitting.
