Dec, 2025 : IonQ to Deliver 100-Qubit Quantum System to South Korea
📅 - IonQ has deepened its foothold in Asia's fast-growing quantum ecosystem by extending its strategic partnership with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information and confirming plans to deliver a next-generation 100-qubit quantum system to South Korea.
The agreement represents a significant step in the creation of the country's National Quantum Computing Center of Excellence and signals growing confidence in the near-term applicability of quantum technologies.
The deal will see IonQ supply its Tempo 100 quantum system to Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information, where it will be integrated directly into KISTI-6, also known as HANKANG, South Korea's largest [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Alphabet to Acquire Intersect for $4.75B to Power Cloud, AI - Alphabet has agreed to acquire Intersect in a cash transaction valued at $4.75 billion, including the assumption of debt, in a move that underscores the growing interdependence between data center expansion and energy infrastructure development in the United States.
The deal builds on an existing relationship between the companies, as Google already holds a minority stake in Intersect from an earlier funding round.
The acquisition is designed to accelerate the delivery of new data center capacity alongside new power generation, addressing one of the most pressing constraints facing the cloud and AI infrastructure market: access to reliable, scalable energy. Intersect brings with it a [...]
📅 - Omdia: Cloud Infrastructure Spend Grows 25% in Q3 2025 - Global spending on cloud infrastructure services reached $102.6 billion in the third quarter of 2025, marking a 25% year-on-year increase and underscoring the sector's continued momentum, according to new research from Omdia.
The quarter represented the fifth consecutive period in which growth remained above 20%, signaling sustained demand even as enterprises navigate economic uncertainty and rising infrastructure costs. Analysts point to the rapid maturation of artificial intelligence workloads as a central driver, with organizations moving decisively from experimentation toward production-scale deployments.
The data suggests that cloud providers are entering a new phase of competition. [...]
📅 - Neural Concept Raises $100M to Scale Engineering AI - Neural Concept has secured $100 million in Series C financing, a significant capital injection that underscores growing investor confidence in enterprise AI tailored for industrial engineering.

The funding positions the company to accelerate product development and expand its global commercial footprint as demand increases for AI systems that can be deployed at scale in complex engineering environments.
Founded to bring AI deeper into the product development lifecycle, Neural Concept focuses on what it [...]
📅 - Axiado Raises $100M+ to Secure AI Data Center Platforms - Axiado Corporation has secured more than $100 million in an oversubscribed Series C+ funding round, underscoring growing investor confidence in hardware-anchored security as artificial intelligence reshapes data center architecture. The newly raised capital will be used to expand Axiado's global footprint and accelerate commercialization.
The funding arrives at a time when AI workloads are placing unprecedented demands on digital infrastructure, exposing new vulnerabilities in system management, security, and energy efficiency. Axiado Corporation positions itself at the intersection of these challenges, developing silicon-based solutions designed to secure and autonomously manage [...]
📅 - Infleqtion Wins $2M Army Contract for Edge AI Navigation - Infleqtion has secured a new $2 million U.S. Army contract to advance artificial intelligence capabilities designed to operate reliably in contested and disconnected environments, reinforcing the growing role of edge AI in modern defense systems. The development of Secured AI for Positioning at the Edge, Navigation, and Timing will be supported by an 18-month Direct-to-Phase II Small Business Innovation Research award.
The contract follows Infleqtion's recent announcement that it plans to become a publicly listed company through a merger with Churchill Capital Corp X. It also builds on the company's momentum after finishing first in the U.S. Army's xTechScalable AI Challenge, where [...]
📅 - FS Launches 1.6T OSFP Modules for Next-Gen AI/HPC Networks - By removing conventional performance barriers, FS Inc. enables multinational corporations to give their infrastructures the scalable capacity required to tackle the most difficult computing problems.
Link distances, east-west traffic, and power limits are all growing as AI infrastructures transition from rack-scale to row-scale deployments. In terms of signal integrity and reach, conventional copper-based interconnects are physically reaching their limits. At the same time, 1.6T optical interconnects are becoming increasingly necessary due to next-generation computing platforms like NVIDIA GB300/B300. As a result, pluggable 1.6T optical interconnect solutions have emerged as a crucial [...]
