Rigetti Computing, Inc. Announces $8.4M Quantum Computer Order from C-DAC - TradingView — Track All Markets

Rigetti Computing secured an $8.4 million order from India’s Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) for a 108-qubit quantum computer, marking a major commercial milestone for the U.S. firm. The system, featuring Rigetti’s proprietary chiplet-based architecture, will be deployed at C-DAC’s Bengaluru facility in late 2026, enabling scalable quantum processing for research and hybrid computing applications. This deal highlights surging global demand for on-premises quantum systems, as governments and enterprises prioritize sovereign quantum capabilities to accelerate R&D in cryptography, materials science, and optimization. The partnership deepens Rigetti’s collaboration with C-DAC, India’s premier R&D organization, following prior joint efforts in hybrid quantum-classical computing infrastructure and workforce development. The order, disclosed in an SEC filing, underscores Rigetti’s expanding footprint in international markets and validates its modular hardware approach as a key differentiator in the competitive quantum computing sector.
