SEALSQ Announces the Establishment of SEALSQ Singapore Ltd to Develop a Post-Quantum Semiconductor Personalization Center

Geneva, Switzerland, March 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, announced today during the presence of its CEO at TGE CNBC Converge Live event its intend to establish SEALSQ Singapore Ltd, a new entity that will be dedicated to creating a Post-Quantum Semiconductor Personalization Center in Singapore. This initiative reinforces SEALSQ’s commitment to advancing secure semiconductor technologies for the post-quantum era.

SEALSQ already manufactures its semiconductors in Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand. By further expanding its footprint in Singapore would enable the Company to strengthen its Asian semiconductor supply chain, accelerate the development of post-quantum secure chips, and enhance its local R&D capabilities for next-generation secure semiconductor technologies.

Singapore is already an integral part of the global semiconductor supply chain, accounting for 10% of all chips produced worldwide and approximately 20% of global semiconductor manufacturing equipment production. The country is home to a diverse semiconductor ecosystem, with research and development (R&D), wafer fabrication, and advanced packaging and testing facilities. By establishing SEALSQ Singapore Ltd, SEALSQ aims to enhance its semiconductor manufacturing capabilities and further expand its presence in Asia’s high-growth semiconductor market.

SEALSQ’s Open Semiconductor Personalization and Test (OSPT) initiative is expected to play a crucial role in this expansion, fostering Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) to establish Semiconductor Personalization Centers. These centers will leverage RISC-V technology for chip design while ensuring localized, secure manufacturing that adheres to the highest international security certifications, including Common Criteria and NIST standards. SEALSQ is currently in discussions for major projects in Europe, North America, the Middle East, and the Far East to implement similar semiconductor personalization processes. These initiatives will be led by seasoned hardware designers and security experts to ensure the highest level of trust and innovation in semiconductor manufacturing.

This strategic positioning has made Singapore a prime location for major semiconductor companies which have made substantial investments in the region. With its strong ecosystem spanning IC design, wafer fabrication, assembly, packaging, and testing, Singapore provides the ideal environment for SEALSQ to scale its semiconductor security operations.

“The establishment of SEALSQ Singapore will be a significant milestone in our global strategy to develop secure post-quantum semiconductor solutions. Singapore’s advanced semiconductor infrastructure, coupled with its strategic location in the heart of Asia, makes it the ideal hub for our new Semiconductor Personalization Center. This move reinforces SEALSQ’s commitment to delivering next-generation security technologies that will safeguard critical digital infrastructures worldwide,” said Carlos Moreira, CEO of SEALSQ.
