About the show

Quantum computing has a “reputation.” To many, it sounds like pure science fiction: a mythical machine that can crack every code, outpace every supercomputer, and solve the world’s biggest problems overnight. But the truth is even more exciting. The Quantum Matters podcast reveals how quantum computing is already transforming the world around us — from automotive manufacturing to retail operations. Created by D-Wave, the world’s first commercial quantum company, each episode unpacks big ideas in plain English and shows where quantum is starting to make a difference today. You’ll hear from researchers, academics, and industry leaders who are walking the talk of applying quantum solutions to their most computationally complex problems. Quantum isn’t “someday.” It’s here. It’s scaling. It’s not afraid of its critics — and it’s creating opportunities faster than most people realize. Don’t get left behind. Follow D-Wave’s Quantum Matters to discover how this once-mythical technology is beginning to change lives, transform industries, and rewrite the future, today.
