D-Wave launches gate-model quantum simulator beta program with BBVA, FirstQFM, FAU and JSC

D-Wave Quantum Inc.

D-Wave launched beta for its gate-model quantum computing simulator on October 1, 2026, built on dual-rail superconducting technology.
Beta participants include BBVA, FirstQFM, Florida Atlantic University and the Jülich Supercomputing Centre.
CEO Alan Baratz said quantum error correction is a defining challenge in commercially useful gate-model quantum computing.
A two-qubit entangling gate in the dual-rail architecture was validated in peer-reviewed research in Nature.
Access is via D-Wave's Leap quantum cloud service and Ocean SDK; development bundles are planned.
