ITASCA, Ill. - Quanome Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:QNME) entered into an approximately $18.8 million purchase agreement for computing infrastructure powered by Nvidia GPU technology on September 16, according to a press release statement.
The equipment will support the development of an AI cloud business through the company’s subsidiary, XDT Infrastructure I, LLC. The purchase represents an initial step in the company’s planned phased development of XDT.

"This investment puts Quanome’s commitment to quantum and AI into action," said Yang Li, Chief Executive Officer of Quanome Technologies. "Through XDT, we aim to give more businesses access to advanced AI computing to power their growth."

The company stated that further investment is intended to align with customer demand, available funding and operational readiness.
