(NYSE: 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 that it will host Qubits Europe 2026: Quantum Realized, a full-day quantum computing user conference on June 18, 2026, in London, England. Qubits Europe 2026 comes at a time of growing momentum for quantum computing across Europe. Governments, research institutions and enterprises across the region are increasing their focus on quantum technologies as drivers of innovation, competitiveness and economic growth. The UK recently reinforced its support for quantum commercialization, infrastructure and public-sector adoption in the service of social prosperity and security, while King Charles III, in his April 28, 2026, address to the U.S. Congress, cited quantum computing among the technologies shaping future UK-U.S. prosperity and innovation. At the same time, the European Union has continued to elevate quantum as a strategic priority through new investment and policy initiatives, and Italy has also increased its emphasis on quantum through national strategy efforts and advocacy from innovation leaders including Undersecretary Alessio Butti. Against this backdrop, Qubits Europe 2026 will convene leading quantum innovators, customers and experts for a full-day event showcasing how organizations are already using D-Wave™ quantum computing technology to address complex challenges in business, science and government. London in particular is a hub for quantum innovation and research, bringing together world-class academic institutions, a growing community of quantum startups and global technology leaders, supported by sustained government investment and a strong policy focus on commercialization. "Europe is playing an important role in the advancement and adoption of quantum computing," said Dr. Alan Baratz, CEO of D-Wave. "Quantum computing is increasingly being recognized not only as a scientific frontier, but as a strategic technology with implications for industry, research and national competitiveness. Qubits Europe 2026 will bring together an exceptional community of innovators, researchers, customers and business leaders to share how quantum computing is being applied today, and to explore the technologies and partnerships that can help drive the next phase of growth across the region."
