# IonQ
Trapped-ion quantum computing company and the sector's public-market bellwether (NYSE: IONQ, ~$19B market cap mid-2026). Under CEO Niccolò de Masi it has grown by acquisition — completing the $1.075B Oxford Ionics deal in September 2025 — and roadmaps 2 million physical qubits by 2030. Emblematic of quantum's speculative pricing: a multibillion valuation against minimal revenue, moving on federal-investment headlines.
> Status: stub — expand with the acquisition spree (Oxford Ionics, ID Quantique, Qubitekk), the de Masi era, and defense/intelligence contracts.
