D-Wave Quantum Inc., a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, and the world’s first supplier of production-grade quantum computers, announced the introduction of the new Leap Quantum LaunchPad™ program, an initiative designed to accelerate the deployment of quantum computing applications. The program offers free trial access to D-WaveTM technology and expertise to help customers use annealing quantum computing to solve important business and scientific problems that can be out of reach of classical computers.
Annealing quantum computing is here now, and adoption of the technology is growing. D-Wave is working with more than 100 commercial, government, and research customers that are using its quantum technologies to drive efficiencies, fuel operations, and conduct groundbreaking scientific experiments. Customers have submitted more than 200 million problems to D-Wave’s AdvantageTM quantum computing systems, helping to address challenges such as employee scheduling, production scheduling, resource optimization, logistics routing, cargo loading, academic research, and more.
The Leap Quantum LaunchPad program aims to jump-start the move to production deployment of quantum computing applications by helping customers quickly realize value from D-Wave annealing quantum computing technology today. The program is designed to accelerate the exploration, development, and implementation of quantum and hybrid-quantum applications by providing qualified participants access to D-Wave technology and support resources for a 3-month free trial period, including:
- D-Wave Advantage production-grade annealing quantum computers, with 5,000+ qubits, and sub-second solve times
- D-Wave’s LeapTM real-time quantum cloud service, which provides 99.9% uptime and availability, security and scalability, developer tools, and a suite of advanced optimization hybrid solvers
- Technical guidance from D-Wave quantum and optimization experts

Optimization problems are ubiquitous in today’s modern businesses, as organizations seek better and faster approaches to solve complex challenges. Annealing quantum computing is proven to be well-suited to addressing optimization problems.
“The Leap Quantum LaunchPad program will offer the access and support needed to quickly get started on the journey to realizing the power of quantum computing today,” said Lorenzo Martinelli, Chief Revenue Officer at D-Wave. “Through this initiative, we intend to help visionary organizations and individuals develop transformative quantum computing applications to address challenging business and scientific problems, and rapidly move those applications into production deployment.”
D-Wave also announced expanded quantum technology access for its Quantum Programming Core and Quick Start Training programs, which offer comprehensive, hands-on, expert-led training to quickly put theory into practice with real-world quantum applications. Participants enrolled in the training programs will now receive increased access to D-Wave annealing quantum computing technology.
