About
AbaQus is a Vancouver-based startup founded in 2021 by David Isaac and Chris Coleman. It builds a research platform that lets financial organizations explore, experiment with, and deploy quantum computing for risk management, optimization, and pricing. The company specializes in quantum-inspired feature selection and data analysis, and offers a complete package of skills transfer, hardware access, and quantum algorithm development to speed quantum readiness within the financial sector. In November 2024, the Quantum Algorithms Institute (QAI) announced a partnership with AbaQus and InvestDEFY Technologies to address common challenges in training machine learning models for financial applications using D-Wave's quantum annealing systems. The work tackles problems in financial forecasting and predictive analytics such as non-stationary data, model overfitting, and generalization, aiming to make financial machine learning more streamlined by eliminating unnecessary features from datasets. AbaQus joined Quantum Industry Canada in April 2024.
