SEALSQ and Quobly Announce Collaboration to Advance Secure and Scalable Quantum Technologies
Geneva, Switzerland / Grenoble, France / Las Vegas, NV (USA), Nov. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
SEALSQ Corp. (NASDAQ:LAES), ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a global provider of post-quantum semiconductor technologies and hardware-anchored security solutions, and Quobly, a pioneer in silicon-based quantum microelectronics, today announced a collaboration to explore the convergence of secure semiconductor architectures and scalable quantum systems.
A collaboration at the intersection of large-scale quantum computing and secure hardware
This collaboration connects SEALSQ's expertise in post-quantum security technologies with Quobly's scalable silicon-based quantum computing platform. The companies will work together to assess how advanced security hardware and quantum processing architectures may co-evolve as quantum computing moves closer to industrial deployment, with the ambition to become the first players capable of exploring hardware Root-of-Trust and post-quantum cryptography natively integrated into large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum systems,
A partnership that aims to position QUOBLY and SEALSQ at the heart of the secure quantum future.
By combining SEALSQ's field-proven post-quantum cryptography and Root-of-Trust technologies with Quobly's unique CMOS-compatible silicon spin qubit platform, the two companies plan to define how quantum-resistant security can be natively embedded into tomorrow's large-scale quantum systems from the earliest design stages.
This collaboration is set to deliver clear strategic benefits for both companies:
- Leadership in quantum-secure hardware: Early access to one of the world's most advanced and scalable silicon qubit platforms enables SEALSQ to tailor its post-quantum secure elements, TPMs, and Root-of-Trust solutions to the exacting requirements of future fault-tolerant quantum computers.
- Accelerated relevance in high-stakes markets: Defense agencies, intelligence communities, financial institutions, and pharmaceutical leaders increasingly demand quantum systems that are both powerful and provably secure. This partnership positions SEALSQ as the go-to security layer for these mission-critical applications. Quobly will benefit from this collaboration to strengthen its development on security segment.
- Accelerated growth on U.S. Market: The alliance supports SEALSQ and Quobly's expansion in the United States, where trusted hardware, post-quantum security and high-performance computing are increasingly strategic. It reinforces Quobly's positioning in sectors such as defense, security, and critical infrastructure, where secure and scalable computing architectures are essential.

- Secure semiconductor personalization through advanced OSAT centers
- Root-of-Trust frameworks providing authenticated hardware and trusted execution
- Quantum-safe communication stacks for IoT, automotive, satellite, and critical systems
Maud Vinet, Co-Founder and CEO of Quobly, said: "At Quobly, our focus is on building scalable quantum processors using industrial-grade semiconductor technology. Exploring complementarities with post-quantum security is a natural step as quantum computing moves toward real-world applications. This collaboration with SEALSQ allows both teams to combine expertise to accelerate US market expansion and strengthen their positions in the defense and security sectors."
Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of SEALSQ, stated: "The convergence of secure semiconductor technologies and quantum computing is essential to protect the digital infrastructures of the future. By bringing together SEALSQ's post-quantum Root-of-Trust technologies and Quobly's scalable quantum platform, we are laying the foundations for sovereign quantum systems that Europe can fully control, trust, and industrialize. This partnership strengthens the foundations for next-generation secure computing systems and accelerates Europe's path toward quantum independence."
