D-Wave Named a Market Shaper in the Gartner Emerging Market Quadrant for Quantum Computing: One of Six Vendors in the Upper Right Quadrant

Thursday, November 12, 2026 · Technology · GSM News

D-Wave Quantum Inc. announced on November 12, 2026, in Palo Alto, California, in a BusinessWire release, that 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. The report, by Gaurav Gupta, Matthew Brisse and Chirag Dekate, is dated November 4, 2026.

According to the report, Market Shapers are building solutions capable of fundamentally replacing classical computing bottlenecks rather than simply augmenting existing workflows, and are moving past pure research experiments to deliver scalable fault-tolerant architectures, high-fidelity logical qubits, long-term roadmaps, and enterprise quantum software stacks. D-Wave chief executive Dr. Alan Baratz said the company believes being named a Market Shaper reflects both the transformative potential of its technology and its ability to deliver, and that it is building the systems, software and partnerships to turn scientific breakthroughs into practical, scalable quantum computers.

D-Wave describes itself as the only dual-platform quantum computing company, providing both annealing and gate-model systems, software, and services, with its Leap quantum cloud service offering 99.9 percent availability and uptime. The company said more than 100 organizations across commercial, government and research sectors use its quantum computing to address complex computational challenges. Gartner's accompanying disclaimer states that its publications consist of the opinions of its research organization and do not constitute an endorsement of any vendor.
