Sealsq Invests In Quantum Security, Building From Chip To Qubit

SEALSQ (Nasdaq: LAES) is pursuing a “Root-to-Qubit” strategy, integrating secure chips and post-quantum cryptography during the design phase of quantum computing infrastructure. The company’s focus extends beyond the quantum processors themselves, specifically targeting the classical electronics and software that control and secure these emerging systems. “Quantum computers will depend on classical systems for many of their most critical functions,” says Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of SEALSQ, outlining a partnership-focused approach to connect security expertise with companies developing quantum infrastructure and establish long-term growth opportunities.

The strategy centers on IC’ALPS, a French custom chip design specialist acquired to bolster expertise in classical electronics supporting quantum processors, specifically circuits designed for cryogenic environments. This acquisition directly addresses the need for specialized components capable of functioning at extremely low temperatures, a critical requirement for many qubit technologies. The company’s approach extends to establishing connections between quantum systems through investments in Swiss-based Miraex, which develops photonic technology to convert microwave signals into optical signals.
