D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, announced it will participate in CES 2026 as a sponsor of the CES Foundry. The two-day event will take place at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas on January 7 and 8, 2026. At the event, D-Wave 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.
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. The session aims to educate attendees about how to realize value from quantum computing today. Registration for the masterclass is available at https://www.ces.tech/schedule/how-quantum-computing-is-transforming-business-today/.
"Showcasing quantum computing at CES, one of the world's most influential technology stages, signals that the technology is quickly moving into the mainstream," said Murray Thom. "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."
D-Wave is the world's first commercial supplier of quantum computers and the only company building both annealing and gate-model quantum computers. The company's mission is to help customers realize the value of quantum technology today. Its quantum computers feature QPUs with sub-second response times and can be deployed on-premises or accessed through a quantum cloud service offering 99.9% availability and uptime.
