# Anderon Finalizes $1 Billion CHIPS Award for Quantum Wafer Manufacturing

**[The Quantum Insider](https://daily.dev/sources/thequantuminsider)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Anderon, an IBM company, has finalized a $1 billion CHIPS and Science Act award from the U.S. Department of Commerce to fund R&D at its 300-millimeter pure-play quantum wafer foundry in Albany, New York. The award follows an additional $1 billion investment from IBM and builds on a May 2026 letter of intent. Anderon has already begun running its first quantum wafers through the facility, producing superconducting qubit arrays, quantum I/O signaling, and readout components, with plans to expand into other quantum modalities.
