From scheduling and routing to resource allocation and planning, optimization problems become more computationally complex as operations scale.

In our next webinar on Feb. 25, 2026 at 8 a.m. PT/11:00 a.m. ET, we’ll take a closer look at D-Wave’s Stride™ hybrid solver, which combines the strengths of annealing quantum computing and classical computing to help customers address problems that classical-only methods may not be able to effectively or efficiently solve.

The session, presented by Catherine G. Potts, Ph.D., Principal Technical Account Manager at D-Wave, includes a live demo and practical guidance on getting started, without requiring deep quantum expertise.

You’ll learn how the Stride hybrid solver is used to address large-scale and nonlinear optimization problems, improve solution quality and scalability, and accelerate time to value, all through D-Wave’s Leap™ quantum cloud service.
