D-Wave to Showcase Unique Dual-Platform Quantum Computing at Quantum World Congress 2026
Company to highlight real-world customer applications in production and advances in its differentiated dual-rail gate-model architecture
PALO ALTO, Calif. – September 15, 2026 –
D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NASDAQ: QBTS) (“D-Wave” or the “Company”), the only dual-platform quantum computing company providing both annealing and gate-model systems, software and services, today announced its participation as a platinum sponsor of Quantum World Congress 2026, taking place September 23-25 in College Park, Maryland.
At Quantum World Congress, D-Wave will demonstrate that the quantum era is multi-platform with different quantum computing technologies to address different types of computational problems. The Company will present results from annealing quantum computing applications solving complex commercial and public-sector optimization problems today. In addition, it will provide updates on its dual-rail gate-model architecture, designed to reduce the cost and complexity of quantum error correction, a critical requirement for enabling applications well suited to gate-model quantum computing, such as quantum chemistry and materials simulation.
D-Wave executives will lead a variety of discussions, including:
•
Dr. Robert Schoelkopf, D-Wave chief science officer, will deliver a plenary address titled
“From Innovation to Utility: The Quantum Era Takes Shape with Two Platforms” on Friday, Sept. 25, at 11:35 a.m. ET.
Drawing on decades at the forefront of superconducting quantum computing, Schoelkopf will offer a deep dive into D-Wave’s industry-leading annealing and gate-model technologies and why we believe customers will need both approaches to address their full range of computationally complex challenges.
•
Allison Schwartz, D-Wave senior vice president of global government relations and public affairs, will participate in the panel
“Quantum You Can See: Real Use Cases, Real Impact” on Thursday, Sept. 24, at 4:30 p.m. ET
. The session will bring together public-sector and industry leaders to highlight practical quantum computing applications that can improve the services people rely on every day.
•
Schwartz will also participate in the panel
“Quantum Policy from the Inside: How Industry Is Shaping the Federal Agenda” on Friday, Sept. 25, at 2 p.m. ET.
The session will examine the policies and public-private partnerships needed to accelerate quantum adoption and strengthen U.S. leadership. Across both sessions, Schwartz will discuss why maintaining U.S. quantum leadership requires a strategy that supports long-term research while also accelerating near-term application development, procurement and deployment.
“In our view, quantum computing is not a single-architecture race, and it will not be won by qubit counts alone,” said Schoelkopf. “D-Wave is bringing two kinds of evidence to Quantum World Congress: production results from annealing systems solving complex optimization
problems now, and gate-model results showing how hardware-level erasure detection can reduce the burden of quantum error correction. Organizations should not have to choose between useful quantum computing today and a credible path to fault tolerance. Our two-platform strategy is designed to deliver both.”
Quantum World Congress attendees are invited to visit D-Wave at booths 51 and 53 to meet with company experts, attend technical talks, view D-Wave’s annealing and gate-model quantum processing units, and explore live demonstrations of quantum-powered applications.
Quantum World Congress is a premier gathering of government, industry and academic leaders advancing quantum technologies. For session times, event information and registration, visit
