PALO ALTO, Calif. & COMO, Italy, October 15 2025 -- D-Wave Quantum Inc. (“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 an agreement with Swiss Quantum Technology SA (“SQT”) to deploy a D-Wave Advantage2 annealing quantum computer in Europe. Announced today at Digital Innovation Forum - ComoLake 2025, the agreement represents a €10M commitment from SQT, with an option to purchase the system.

Capable of solving complex computational problems beyond the reach of classical computers, the placement of this Advantage2 system also supports the newly formed Q-Alliance, an initiative that empowers Italy with new global infrastructure in quantum computing to support the country’s Digital Transformation future.  The Advantage2 system funded by SQT will be accessible to customers via D-Wave's Leap real-time quantum cloud service. Featuring D-Wave’s most advanced quantum processor to date, the 4,400+ qubit Advantage2 system is a powerful and energy-efficient quantum computer designed to facilitate quantum and hybrid quantum applications for production deployment.

“The agreement with SQT is an important milestone in our ongoing effort to expand global access to our fleet of annealing quantum computers and to help our rapidly growing customer base solve computationally complex problems faster and more efficiently,” said Dr. Alan Baratz, CEO of D-Wave. “As Europe extends its quantum leadership, we believe that D-Wave’s production-grade annealing quantum computing technology will serve as a critical component, fueling quantum application development and adoption now.”

“Traditional computing is reaching its limits—not just in performance, but in energy efficiency,” said Enrico De Mitri, CEO of SQT. “Hosting an Advantage2 system reinforces our commitment to help meet the growing need for advanced computation without accelerating energy consumption. We believe D-Wave’s technology could be essential in delivering powerful solutions with a significantly smaller energy footprint.”
