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 it has been recognized as a Market Shaper in the Gartner® Emerging Market Quadrant for Quantum Computing – Established Vendors as of November 2026, and was among six quantum computing vendors in the upper right quadrant.

According to the report, “Market Shapers are building solutions capable of fundamentally replacing classical computing bottlenecks rather than simply augmenting existing workflows. Market Shapers are moving past pure research experiments to deliver scalable fault-tolerant architectures, high-fidelity logical qubits, long-term roadmaps, and enterprise quantum software stacks that redefine what is computationally possible.”

“We believe being named a Market Shaper by Gartner reflects both the transformative potential of D-Wave’s technology and our ability to deliver,” said Dr. Alan Baratz, CEO of D-Wave. “Shaping this market demands both bold technical vision and the resources to execute. We are building the systems, software and partnerships to turn scientific breakthroughs into an accelerated path to practical, scalable quantum computers that deliver value today and tomorrow.”
