Strangeworks, an Austin, Texas-based software company focused on quantum computing, has closed a round of Series A financing led by Hitachi Ventures and will use the investment to support efforts to offer quantum-inspired technologies, high-performance computing, artificial intelligence and other tech platforms.

IBM and Raytheon Technologies participated in the Series A round, which raised $24 million in funding, Strangeworks said Tuesday.
