SEALSQ Increases Quantum Investment Fund to Over $100 Million

SEALSQ Corp, a provider of Post-Quantum Cryptography hardware and software, has announced a significant increase in its Quantum Investment Fund, expanding it from thirty-five million dollars to over one hundred million dollars.

This strategic move aims to enhance Europe's leadership in Quantum Security and support the company's vision of achieving European technological sovereignty. The expanded fund will focus on three main objectives: accelerating the rollout of a Quantum-Safe digital ecosystem, contributing to the development of a European sovereign Quantum Computer, and establishing a pan-European Quantum Corridor that connects research, industry, and secure infrastructure.

A sovereign Quantum Computer, as defined by SEALSQ, is one that is designed, manufactured, operated, and secured entirely within Europe, ensuring regional control over the entire supply chain. The strategy will involve a combination of PQC algorithms, quantum-resilient hardware, secure satellite communications, and AI-enhanced security modules.

Significant existing investments include approximately twelve million dollars dedicated to developing a PQC Semiconductor Personalization and Test Center in Murcia, Spain, supported by the Spanish government's SETT.ES program.

Additionally, SEALSQ has acquired ICAlps for around fourteen million dollars for custom quantum-ready silicon and invested in ColibriTD for quantum key distribution and hybrid PQC communication capabilities in France.

The company has also made a strategic investment in EeroQ, a quantum chip design company, as part of its Quantum Made in USA strategy. Carlos Moreira, CEO of SEALSQ, emphasized that this increased funding will accelerate innovation to protect critical infrastructure and develop a fully vertically integrated quantum computing ecosystem.

The announcement was made on December ninth, twenty twenty-five.
