D-Wave Quantum Inc. announced it will participate in CES 2026 as a sponsor of the CES Foundry event at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas on January 7 and 8, 2026. The company plans to showcase its award-winning annealing quantum computing technology, hybrid quantum-classical solvers, and real-world customer use cases that demonstrate measurable performance benefits, often beyond what classical computing alone can achieve. Murray Thom, vice president of quantum technology evangelism at D-Wave, will present a masterclass and demo on Wednesday, January 7 from 1 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. PT, educating attendees about how to realize value from quantum computing today. The session, which can be registered for at https://www.ces.tech/schedule/how-quantum-computing-is-transforming-business-today/, represents a significant opportunity for businesses to understand practical quantum applications.
Showcasing quantum computing at CES, one of the world's most influential technology stages, signals that the technology is quickly moving into the mainstream. D-Wave is uniquely positioned to demonstrate practical quantum in action, and we're excited to show how our systems are helping customers solve complex problems now, often with greater speed, efficiency, and impact than classical computing alone. The company's participation at CES 2026 underscores the growing maturity of quantum computing as a commercial technology. D-Wave, as the world's first commercial supplier of quantum computers and the only company building both annealing and gate-model quantum computers, has positioned itself at the forefront of making quantum computing accessible for business applications. More than 100 organizations currently trust D-Wave with their toughest computational challenges, with over 200 million problems submitted to their quantum systems to date.
D-Wave's quantum computers feature QPUs with sub-second response times and can be deployed on-premises or accessed through their quantum cloud service, which offers 99.9% availability and uptime. Customers apply the technology to address use cases spanning optimization, artificial intelligence, research and more.
