Quantum computing firms are increasingly choosing Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) for their initial public offerings. This trend allows these companies to achieve valuations sooner and provide financial forecasts, a contrast to conventional IPO methods. Lou Gerken, leader of FIGX Capital Acquisition, noted a significant increase in the proportion of SPACs in total U.S. IPOs, which jumped from around 18% in 2024 to between 40% and 45% in 2025, and is projected to reach nearly 60% in 2026. The success of these SPAC deals is often dependent on having a skilled team, a relevant sponsor, and access to PIPE financing.
