Alice & Bob said NVentures has invested in the quantum startup, extending its $116 million Series B, though the companies did not disclose the new amount.
The funding is aimed at fault-tolerant quantum computing, with Alice & Bob using its cat-qubit architecture and Nvidia providing the accelerated computing stack needed for hybrid quantum-classical systems.
Since 2024, the two have worked together on CUDA-Q, cuQuantum, Dynamiqs and NVQLink, tying Alice & Bob’s qubits into Nvidia’s hardware and software ecosystem.
That collaboration will continue through integration projects for high-performance computing centers worldwide, where the partners aim to deploy hybrid quantum-GPU systems.

Is Nvidia building an open quantum future or a new walled garden with its dominant software?

Will 'cat qubits' finally make fault-tolerant quantum computing a practical reality for industries beyond research?

With AI now key to quantum scaling, is the race for quantum advantage actually an AI race in disguise?
