D-Wave Quantum Systems Inc. is a Canadian quantum computing company, based in Burnaby, British Columbia. D-Wave claims to be the world's first company to sell computers that exploit quantum effects in their operation.[2] D-Wave's early customers include Lockheed Martin, the University of Southern California, Google/NASA, and Los Alamos National Lab.
D-Wave does not implement a generic quantum computer; instead, their computers implement specialized quantum annealing.[3]
