Honeywell’s Board of Directors has appointed Jillian Evanko, 48, Chief Executive Officer of Duravant LLC, as an independent director and audit committee member effective immediately. This move bolsters the board’s industrial and manufacturing expertise ahead of the Aerospace spin-off on June 29, 2026, after which Evanko will join alongside nine existing directors.
Quantinuum, the quantum computing spin-off backed by Honeywell, has raised its IPO size to $1.46 billion, making it the largest quantum offering of the year.
