SEALSQ Corp Accelerates Quantum Startups with Incubator and Strategic Investment

SEALSQ Corp, a semiconductor and post-quantum technology company, announced its SEALQuantum.com Lab Incubator, which accelerates quantum startups from research to market-ready products. The incubator combines technical expertise, global networks, and strategic investment to build the foundation of the quantum industry. The quantum market is expected to reach $97 billion globally by 2035, with quantum computing alone projected to grow at annual rates of above 30%. Startups with scalable applications and bold innovations can benefit from joining the incubator.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES), a leading innovator in post-quantum technology hardware and software solutions, has announced the launch of its SEALQuantum.com Lab Incubator. This initiative aims to accelerate quantum startups from breakthrough research to market-ready products and solutions. By combining deep technical expertise, global networks, and strategic investment, SEALSQ is positioning itself as a key player in the burgeoning quantum industry [1].

The quantum market is expected to reach $97 billion globally by 2035, with quantum computing alone projected to grow at annual rates of above 30%. This rapid growth presents unprecedented opportunities for startups with scalable applications and bold innovations [1]. The SEALQuantum.com Lab Incubator is designed to help these startups navigate the complex journey from research to commercialization.

Startups selected for the program will benefit from direct collaboration with SEALSQ's post-quantum engineers and researchers, opportunities for investment, strategic partnerships, or acquisitions, and access to platforms to showcase their technologies at SEALSQ Quantum Days and international events. The incubator also provides guidance on productization, go-to-market strategy, and access to SEALSQ's experience in navigating the path from lab innovation to scalable, market-ready products [1].

At the core of SEALSQ's strategy is the SEALQuantum.com Lab, a next-generation research and development hub focused on the convergence of quantum computing and cybersecurity, now expanding into artificial intelligence (AI). With a $30 million investment capacity, the lab has already invested in startups like ColibriTD and Quantix, and acquired ASIC semiconductor design specialist IC’ALPS to develop tailor-made solutions for semiconductor manufacturing and post-quantum security [1].

One concrete example of the lab's activities is a collaboration with ColibriTD and Xdigit to develop a breakthrough solution for sub-7nm semiconductor wafer yields. This initiative aims to improve wafer yields for advanced semiconductor designs at nodes below 7nm by addressing IR Drop issues. Leveraging advanced mathematical modeling of IR Drop and quantum computing's ability to solve complex Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), the partners aim to unlock higher yields and enable next-generation chips essential for AI, automotive, and IoT applications [1].

The next cohort of SEALQuantum startups will be officially presented during SEALSQ's Quantum Corridor launch event in Davos in January 2026. Additionally, SEALSQ will spotlight its startup network at the IQT Quantum + AI event in NY in October 2025, providing startups with direct exposure to global investors, policymakers, and industry leaders [1].

SEALSQ's strategic positioning at the intersection of quantum computing, cybersecurity, and AI is a testament to its commitment to driving practical solutions for advanced chip manufacturing and quantum-resistant security. By embedding post-quantum cryptography into its semiconductor solutions, SEALSQ ensures that organizations stay protected against quantum threats [1].
