Executive Summary
GigCapital8 Corp. (GIW) announced a non-binding letter of intent for a business combination with Quantisimo Corp., a special purpose vehicle jointly established by WISeKey and SEALSQ, to create a publicly traded quantum technology platform. The proposed deal values Quantisimo at approximately $575 million pre-money, with plans to reach $2 billion through additional acquisitions, and is expected to close in Q1 2027.
