Then we started the tour of D-Wave’s labs.
Surrounded by really smart, disciplined business thinkers, Enterprise 2.0 Summit Paris February 7-8 2012 was the place to be.

Other #e20s attendees have captured meeting highlights including Emanuelle Quintarelli , Ana Silva , Anthony Poncier Samuel Driessen , and Jon Ingham.
