D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) announced that its annual Qubits user conference will take place on January 27 and 28, 2026, in Boca Raton, Florida. The event will feature presentations from D-Wave executives, customers, industry leaders, and scientists, focusing on how the company's energy-efficient annealing quantum computers and hybrid-quantum solvers are delivering measurable impact in real-world applications.
Qubits 2026 is expected to be one of the premier quantum computing events of the year, bringing together attendees from around the globe to share insights and discuss the rapidly advancing field of quantum computing. Notable speakers include representatives from Anduril, AT&T, Davidson Technologies, Lighthouse DIG, North Wales Police, PolarisQB, Q-Alliance, Quantum Coast Capital, TECNALIA, Unissant, and Verge. For those unable to attend in person, D-Wave will offer a free virtual livestream of the first day's talks.
In addition to customer success stories, D-Wave will share its latest technology roadmap for both annealing and gate-model quantum computing initiatives. This underscores the company's leadership in delivering commercial-grade superconducting quantum technology and outlines its strategic vision for the future. D-Wave is a pioneer in quantum computing, having delivered the world's first commercial quantum computers, and remains the only company building both annealing and gate-model systems. Its quantum computers feature QPUs with sub-second response times and can be deployed on-premises or accessed through its quantum cloud service, which offers 99.9% availability and uptime.
More than 100 organizations trust D-Wave with their toughest computational challenges, with over 200 million problems submitted to its quantum systems to date. Customers apply the technology to address use cases spanning optimization, artificial intelligence, research, and more. The Qubits conference serves as a platform to demonstrate how quantum computing is moving beyond theoretical promise to practical, commercial applications.
