D-Wave to Showcase the Impact of Quantum-Powered Optimization at Info-Tech LIVE

Use cases from logistics to retail will highlight the measurable outcomes possible with today’s hybrid-quantum and quantum technologies

PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) (“D-Wave” or the “Company”), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services and the world’s first commercial supplier of quantum computers, today announced its participation in Info-Tech Research Group's annual flagship conference, Info-Tech LIVE, on September 17, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Aligned with the conference theme “Exponential IT in Motion,” Alexander Condello, D-Wave’s director of algorithms, tools, and performance, will be a featured keynote speaker at 4:10 p.m. PST. Attendees will hear about real-world hybrid-quantum use cases and discover how D-Wave's customers are seamlessly integrating quantum technology into existing infrastructures. They will learn how leveraging the speed and availability of D-Wave’s Leap™ real-time quantum cloud service can meet critical computation needs through its immediate and reliable access to quantum solutions.

Quantum-powered optimization is designed to address computationally complex problems that are pervasive among today’s modern organizations. According to a recent Hyperion Research study commissioned by D-Wave, business processes well-suited for quantum optimization include supply-chain management, production and workforce scheduling, inventory management, manufacturing/factory processes, vehicle routing, and logistics.

"Quantum optimization’s growing commercial and government adoption is evidence of its impact on organizational efficiencies, competitiveness, and ultimately, the bottom line —outcomes that companies are now struggling to fully realize using outdated computing methods alone,” said Condello. “I’m looking forward to sharing stories of our customers’ successful quantum and hybrid-quantum applications with attendees at Info-Tech LIVE and discussing just how accessible and easy it is to use the technology today.”
