Lenovo bought the x86 line, including all facilities and staff, from IBM, and produced last few generations of IBM branded devices.
The Thinkpad design team is still operating from the same ex-IBM facilities in Japan, iirc, even keeping some place-related naming in the internal codenames (X220/X230 and related T420/T430 were "Nozomi", iirc based on my spelunking in firmware)
