Investors in PIPE included PSP Investments, Goldman Sachs Asset Management, NEC, Yorkville Advisors and Aegis Group Partners. “We are pleased to complete our Business Combination with D-Wave, a market-leading company that we expect to remain at the forefront of commercializing the quantum computing market. Today D-Wave is the only commercial quantum computing company in the world, and the only quantum computing company that is building both annealing and gate-model quantum computers.
